Is it possible to mount .iso files (virtual optical drive) on Android? First of all, I am not sure if my question should be here as I couldn't find a place to shoot it. So please direct me to the right site, if I am barking at the wrong tree.. 

Question : In our normal PCs/laptops we have the ability to install 3rd party softwares to create a virtual CD/DVD drive and mount .iso files to it.

For the sake of mobility, (as I am on the go 90% of the time) I want to buy a tablet. So I am wondering if I could do the same in either Asus or Samsung tablet 8.0?

If above tablets can't perform this function, can someone point out why and which tablets would do it?
Underneath Android is Linux kernel. So if you install a custom rom with a custom kernel on any of tablets you can do that. The kernel should have loop device support + CONFIG_ISO9660_FS module or built-in. Then you will need root+busybox. Install some terminal emulator and type this commands:


su
cd /sdcard
mkdir mountpoint
mount -t iso9660 image.iso mountpoint -o ro,loop


Also if your iso contaions UDF file system you will need kernel UDF support.
