I have several dd images from a single drive. One of them is the swap. I mounted all of the images in Ubuntu just fine except for the image of the swap. This is how the dd images break down: hda8 is /, hda1 is /boot, hda6 is /home, hda5 is /usr, hda7 is /var, and hda9 is swap.
The command I used was: sudo mount -o loop,ro hda1.dd /mnt/Linux
I mounted each image in the order listed above so that it all appears as a single drive.
When I try to mount the swap image it fails with the error: dev/loop5 looks like swap space - not mounted. You must specify the file system type.
Any suggestions?
