  • List the partitions on a block device or disk image:
    sudo partx --list path/to/device_or_disk_image
  • Add all the partitions found in a given block device to the kernel:
    sudo partx --add --verbose path/to/device_or_disk_image
  • Delete all the partitions found from the kernel (does not alter partitions on disk):
    sudo partx --delete path/to/device_or_disk_image
