Hi,

in order to use lomount on ia64 machines (which use EFI partitions aka GPT), I 
have heavily patched lomount.
It now handles MBR and GPT partitions.
It handles large files (which is IMHO necessary).
It displays the partition if -partition option is missing (small bonus!)
Also I think the logic is simpler.

Tested on MBR and GPT created by parted.

Tristan.
