Now the problem is, that this is a image of a whole hdd. I only need

A brute force approach, but probably the easiest and fastest:
Assign this image to a VirtualBox vm and start it. Or get a vm to use
it, even if you have tot move it to another machine. Then scp it off
the vm onto the real hardware.
Inelegant, but works :-)
Even better would be losetup from sys-apps/util-linux.
