Looks like you just do it wrong. Correct way is to create a loopback and then use kpartx to discover partitions, not use loopback with offset. This "root device" is purely technical information and it should be discovered automatically from the information we already have (we have a directory) -- Regards Vladimir 'φ-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko
