Mounting Partitions *inside* a dd Image

[Mike Kallies]

Hello Everyone,

I have a disk image which was taken several years ago using "dd".  I
want to try to recover the data from the image, but I don't want to have
to copy it back out to a disk.

If I were smart, I could have done

  dd if=/dev/sda1 of=sda1.img
  dd if=/dev/sda2 of=sda2.img
  dd if=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 of=sda-bootsector.img

But instead, I did

  dd if=/dev/sda of=sda.img

So now, years later, I've got this blob which I can't quite mount.

Does anyone know a trick to mount the partitions inside the image?

Thanks,

-Mike
