Whilst flailing around on the web, I found a couple of useful bits for mounting a disk image that contains a partition table (for example, a USB isntall image)
Firstly set up a loopback:
losetup /dev/loop1 install.img
Then use kpartx to setup up the partitions under /dev/mapper
kpartx -av /dev/loop1
Now the partitions can be mounted
mount /dev/mapper/loop1p2 /mnt
As a secondary issue, opening an iso from Fedora isd easy, as long as you have the right bits installed. Under Xfce, I installed file-roller and genisoimage to open iso images.
