Mounting a compressed image
Needed when mounting a compressed KNOPPIX file found in the linux boot partition. For instance you need to recover some USB modules to place directly in miniroot.
insmod cloop.o file=/path/to/compressed/image
mount -o ro -t whatever /dev/cloop /mnt/compressed
insmod cloop.o file=/path/to/compressed/image
mount -o ro -t whatever /dev/cloop /mnt/compressed
