Easiest Way to Mount an Image File

["Martin McCormick" <martin.m@suddenlink.net>]

The following command works:

sudo losetup /dev/loop0 /home/pgmaudio/2016-11-25-raspbian-jessie-lite.img

When one does

fdisk -l /dev/loop0 the result is sensable:

      Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/loop0p1            8192      137215       64512    c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/loop0p2          137216     2715647     1289216   83  Linux

If you try something like 

sudo mount /dev/loop0 p2 /mnt

The report is that it doesn't exist and ls /dev/loop0* only shows
the original loop0 loopback device. I looked through all of /dev
such as /dev/mapper and there seems to be nothing else pertaining
to loop0 so what am I missing?

	I have tried this on the debian raspbian image above plus
some images I created with dd from the sd card of a working
raspberry pi and both images showed up with fdisk -l but nothing
else.

	Thanks for any constructive ideas.
