In your case, if you just had "ubda=/opt/uml/disk" and made partition #1 the root partition and #2 the swap partition, the UML kernel would set up /dev/ubda1 and /dev/ubda2, instead of /dev/ubda and /dev/ubdb as you do now. That being said, don't do that and just ignore those warnings. Right now you can just mount /opt/uml/root_fs loopback on the host if you want to. If the file on the host had a partition table on it, you instantly make it 100x harder to work with on the host, since most loopback tools don't understand the concept of a partition table.
