I would just do it on FreeBSD - man mdconfig. Last I looked (years ago) the UFS
support on linux was not actively maintained and I would be very surprised if
they have UFS2 support. I've had to create my own root images for doing work on
xen so I know it works just fine. If you insist on doing it on Linux, the
command is losetup.
to bind:
> losetup /dev/loop0 <root image>
to unbind:
> losetup -d /dev/loop0
