(Slightly off-topic)
just jumping in on the loop-mount-with-offset-8192 thing: It's easy. The partition is in fact acting as a device, so it contains its own MBR and partition table. I assume that's because that *partition* gets exported as a *drive* via USB. It's the same for the Kindle Touch (that's were i came across that in the first place).
