You can specify an offset to the loop back with mount -o loop,offset=32256 The offset seems to be the start you get from fdisk * 512

Partition table entries are not in disk order stud...@student-desktop:~/Desktop$ from what i can tell the image is not from a linux system more of a windows system how ever i would still like to know how to mount one of more of the partions in the image. -- ubuntu-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au -- ubuntu-au mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-au
