Hello,
I have a disk.img (a disk image file, raw format) with the following "fdisk -l"
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
disk.img1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
disk.img2 14 2491 19904535 8e Linux LVM
Now I can loopback mount the first bartition using
"mount -o loop,offset=32256 disk.img /mnt".
I need to mount the second partition. If the secoond partition had
been an ext3 partition, I would have loopback mounted it as
"mount -o loop,offset=$((255*63*512*13) disk.img /mnt", but when I try
that, I get
mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
