My mind boggles. I know how to mount an ISO as a loop device onto the
file system, but if you'd be so kind, can you give a super-brief
description on how to get a loop device to look like an actual partition
that can be made into a RAID array? I can see this software-only
solution as being quite interesting for testing in general.
