Did anybody out there succeed in mounting an LVM partition out of an image file?
That's why kpartx (for lvm) and lomount exist ;-) Don't forget after you've used kpartx -a to use lvscan to discover your lv and vgchange ...

I had hoped for some other way because there is an open bug in kpartx on recent CentOS which leads to
failed to stat() /var/lib/xen/images/BaseCentos.img
Seems to work only with rather small img files.
Do you have any other idea?
