Hi, I have a 5GB kvm image that I created some time ago, and would like to mount it on the host system to access it. I've located a few documents online for how to do this, but it doesn't seem to work properly. Can someone direct me to information on how to mount a qcow2 image as a local filesystem on FC13? I've tried to convert it to 'raw', but then when I try to mount it, I see: # file systmp-kvm.* systmp-kvm.img: Qemu Image, Format: Qcow , Version: 2 systmp-kvm.raw: x86 boot sector, LInux i386 boot LOader; partition 1: ID=0x83, active, starthead 0, startsector 1, 48194 sectors; partition 2: ID=0x85, starthead 0, startsector 48195, 83827170 sectors, code offset 0xeb # sfdisk -l systmp-kvm.raw Disk systmp-kvm.raw: cannot get geometry Disk systmp-kvm.raw: 5221 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track Units = cylinders of 8225280 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0 Device Boot Start End #cyls #blocks Id System systmp-kvm.raw1 * 0+ 2 3- 24097 83 Linux systmp-kvm.raw2 3 5220 5218 41913585 85 Linux extended systmp-kvm.raw3 0 - 0 0 0 Empty systmp-kvm.raw4 0 - 0 0 0 Empty systmp-kvm.raw5 3+ 5102 5100- 40965749+ 83 Linux systmp-kvm.raw6 5103+ 5220 118- 947834+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris # mount -o loop,offset=$((63*1024)) systmp-kvm.raw /mnt/newimage/ mount: you must specify the filesystem type Ideas greatly appreciated! Thanks, Alex
