I just hacked up an ugly small shell script, that uses sfdisk and
dmsetup to create the partition devices over any block device.
Just dmsetup-partitions /dev/loop0 or something.
It will then create devices /dev/mapper/loop0p1, etc... just like hda1
and so on. To remove them use "dmsetup remove loop0p1", etc...
