A partition, or a filesystem??
We tend to use both of these terms interchangeably, but they ARE NOT THE
SAME THING.
Normally we fill a disk-partition with just one filesystem, though MBR
'extended partitions' can hold several 'logical partitions'.
This most likely what you wanted the answer to, but you CAN put a 'partition' within a
partition by formatting a normal file as a filesystem.
So (for instance) you might have a 100MB partition that hold ten 10 MB
files, each of which holds a filesystem and each of those can be mounted
just like a disk-partition can be mounted.
====================================
#!/bin/bash
#jvs script "loopmount"
# mounts .iso image file on /cd
# mounts filesystem-file on mount-point
#
if [ "$2" != "" ]; then
MOUNTPOUNT=$2
else
MOUNTPOUNT=/cd
fi
if [ "$3" != "" ]; then
TYPE=$3
else
TYPE=iso9660
fi
if [ -z $1 ]; then
echo "usage: loopmount <imagefile-name> ( will be mounted on /cd ) (will be iso9660)"
echo " loopmount <imagefile-name> <mount-point> <filesystem type>"
else
LOOP=$(sudo losetup --find --show $1)
echo "sudo /bin/mount -t${TYPE} -oloop $LOOP $MOUNTPOUNT"
sudo /bin/mount -t${TYPE} -oloop $LOOP $MOUNTPOUNT
fi
====================================

Jack
