Hi,
I'm dicking around with a file, which is actually a Sun disk image. I've
used losetup to associate loop0 with this file, and if I use fdisk on it, I
can see a couple of partitions inside.
So how do I mount these partitions?
apollock at debian:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/loop0
Disk /dev/loop0 (Sun disk label): 1 heads, 640 sectors, 2048 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 640 * 512 bytes
Device Flag Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/loop0p1 r 0 1 320 4 SunOS usr
/dev/loop0p2 r 1 1768 565440 2 SunOS root
/dev/loop0p3 1768 1776 2560 0 Empty
/dev/loop0p4 1776 1784 2560 0 Empty
/dev/loop0p5 1784 1792 2560 0 Empty
/dev/loop0p6 1792 1800 2560 0 Empty
It sounds like I need some more loop devices or something.
regards
Andrew
