There is something based on FUSE: http://lwn.net/Articles/173617/ Which involves UML... doesn't seem a good option to me... My approach is simpler: 1. Change pmount so it supports loopback devices 2. Change the /dev/loop* group permissions. You can accomplish 2 by modifying udev rules, the kernel or chgrp directly. I just wondered if the kernel how the kernel could be changed and why it wouldn't be a good idea.
