"ISO" and "drive" do seem potentially confusing, but I like your idea
of "Mount disc image as folder". However, since it is a context menu,
I'm not sure if we need to give the thing you have just clicked on a
name as the context was already defined by the user's action, "this
file". What about just "Mount as folder"?
