I just checked http://www.dad-answers.com/qemu/utilities/QEMU-HD-Mounter/qemu-hd-mounter.tar.gz
and it is a version that has the infinite looping bug (if it can't find the
partition in the disk image, it keeps searching forever).
Fixed version is attached here. It is not likely to work either, but it will
report an error instead of hanging forever.
To be sure what is going on, I'll need to see the output from this lomount
(be sure to compile with -DDEBUG) and from the command "fdisk -lu hda.img".
Knowing what version of fdisk you have (fdisk -v) is helpful as well.
