I don't know if the following will help or if it is what you need
exactly, but i had tried to partition a file and the following document

http://www.clarkson.edu/projects/itl/honeypot/ddtutorial.txt
I could mount and use the partitions contained in the file, but i have
never tried to partition a rewritable medium.
