Use tar. Simple FreeBSD tar, it's good for everything.

 From the man page of mdconfig(8):
To mount an ISO 9660 CD image file:

# mdconfig -a -t vnode -u 10 -f cdimage.iso
# mount_cd9660 /dev/md10 /mnt

Afterwards you can access all the files within cdimage.iso as any other
files
in /mnt.

To better understand what happens see
mdconfig(8)http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mdconfigapropos=0sektion=0manpath=FreeBSD+7.0-RELEASEformat=htmlman
page.

all the best,
v

Easiest way normally would be to mount the image and use the filesystem.
assuming you are not root and have sudo installed.

sudo mdconfig -a -t vnode -f filename.iso -u 7

(this assumes you dont already have an md7 device, not specifying -u
will automatically take the next available.)

then
sudo sudo mount -t cd9660 /dev/md7 /path/to/mountpoint

once you are done, umount it and

sudo mdconfig -d -u 7

man mdconfig has more info and another example.

well, you can mount it and then search around inside ..


mount_cd9660 -o ro /dev/`mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/file.iso` /mount-point



Good luck!

You can mount an iso and copy files from it.

First create a memory disk device to contain the file system:

mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /path/to/your.iso -u md0

Then mount the file system as you would mount a CD-ROM:

mount -t cd9660 /dev/md0   /mnt

After you finish, first unmount then detach the md0 device:

umount /mnt
mdconfig -d -u md0

I never tried it but bsdtar is able to extract an iso image.

tar creates and manipulates streaming archive files.  This
implementation can extract from tar, pax, cpio, zip, jar, ar, and ISO
9660 cdrom images and can create tar, pax, cpio, ar, and shar archives.

Regards.
