There's no magic required... VMware Server at least includes everything
you need; the tool is called "vmware-mount.pl". Here's how to invoke it:
Usage: /usr/bin/vmware-mount.pl
-p : Print the partition table
disk : Name of the Virtual Hard Disk file
or
disk : Name of the Virtual Hard Disk file
partition : Number of the partition
[-t type] : Partition type
[-o options]: Partition mount options(s)
mount-point : Directory where to mount the partition
AFAIK, you can only mount it when the corresponding virtual machine is
not actively running.
HTH, cheers.
