Erm, no.
It is possible that you do not understand this suggestion. You should ask
what what it means, or read man losetup. It would solve your problem,
though it might not be the simplest solution. It is what I would do in
your place, unless I already knew of a simpler solution.
Aside from the performance issues, wouldn't it cause problems to run a
journaled filesystem on top of another journaled filesystem? I keep
hearing you're not supposed to do that. Anyone have details on what the
story is with that?
