here I've mixed two things together: with disk emulation you neither can create the partition on host (because atari_fdisk doesn't support disk images) nor you can create the filesystem from host easily (unless you guess the partition offset for the loop offset parameter or have the Laurent's 2.6.26 kernel with Atari partition support compiled in). > case B) I have an existing partition on the host and want to access it > from inside of linux from inside of the ARAnyM linux-m68k, naturally: > 1) set the /path/to/disk_image and partition type in [PARTITION1] and > you can start accessing the /dev/sdb1 from ARAnyM's OS. And there could be case C) dedicate spare disk partition or whole disk drive to ARAnyM 1) c/s/fdisk /dev/sdX to create as large partition you want to dedicate the rest is same as with disk image, i.e. map the path and run mke2fs in any of the host/guest system.
