Access a sub partition from KVM host
Hello Debian experts,
I have a kvm/libvirt installed on Debian, with a Windows 10 virtual
machine.
The Windows virtual machine has access the a whole disk partition,
/dev/sda2, that I have added using the virtual machine manager.
Because Windows "see" this partition as a disk, it has created
partitions inside.
When I use kpartx, I see the partitions:
root@main:/etc# kpartx /dev/sda2
sda2p1 : 0 262144 /dev/sda2 34
sda2p2 : 0 4469876736 /dev/sda2 264192
However, kpartx does not create the device files in /dev
I need to mount this partition from Linux, as *read only*, to share the
files easily between Linux and Windows.
Can I mount these partitions from Linux easily, or should I use loop
device?
Thanks for your help
