I also tried it, but only worked after deleting all previous files
EXCEPT jigdo-file-cache.db (and images, of course). Then
mount image with loop and reply with the mount point
when asked for previous files.
Also, after a cycle, the remaining files not found in the previous
images must be retrieved from mirror, so you must reply empty when
asked *again* for the previous images.

I think the method is not very clear and i hope it will be 
polished in future versions...
