+====== Mount single partition from image of entire disk (device) ======
+Get the partition layout of the image
+<code>fdisk -lu sda.img</code>
+<code>...
+Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
+Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
+...
+  Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
+sda.img1   *          56     6400000     3199972+   c  W95 FAT32 (LBA)</code>
+Calculate the offset from the start of the image to the partition start
+Sector size * Start = (in the case) 512 * 56 = 28672
+Mount it on /dev/loop0 using the offset
+<code>losetup -o 28672 /dev/loop0 sda.img</code>
+Now the partition resides on /dev/loop0. You can fsck it, mount it etc
+<code>fsck -fv /dev/loop0
+mount /dev/loop0 /mnt</code>
+Unmount
+<code>umount /mnt
+losetup -d /dev/loop0</code>
