Got it. Here you go:

root at brix-1:/# fdisk -l /dev/loop0

Disk /dev/loop0: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes
107 heads, 17 sectors/track, 11529 cylinders, total 20971520 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xefd0e90b

       Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/loop0p1   *           1    20971519    10485759+  83  Linux

You'd mentioned in your previous private email to me that the start

Hmm, I get no output at all...

I've thrown the entire o.log contents into paste here:
