KVM image

[Sthu Deus <sthu.deus@gmail.com>]

Good time of the day.


I can not mount a KVM HDD file - in the VM I create partition on the VM
device, format it, latter I can access it in KVM.

But when I try to mount the file in host environment (not VM) it
requires FS type, when it is specified, it gives usual error - bad SB,
mount option, etc.

That's how I do it (and months ago it did work perfectly):

# mount -t ext3 -o loop,offset=32256 ./db /mnt/0

# ls
da  db

the versions of KVM and related software is Debian 6 up to the date.


Thanks for Your time.
