So, let's say you did as Steven suggests and downloaded the bare.i kernel
from Slack 7.1 and booted your BL3 using it.  With it, you'd have minix
support.  Then, you could do all that loop mounting stuff I described,
with the following minor change:

-------------------------------------------------
mount -t minix -o loop /path/to/ide.dsk /mnt/deli
-------------------------------------------------
