I am trying it from many years (yes years) to mount (plain-ext4-format) .img files in a ubuntu 14.04 running in c9.io without ability to load module or kernel tweak or fstab tweak (because it ignores fstab).
i tried-:
- loop - (kernel don't know about loop devices or load it)
- fuse - (same)
- qemu-nbd - ( can't add/load nbd module)
- qemu-system-x86_64 - (booted ubuntu 14.04 instance successfully but damn slow even with -smp 8 (cpu-8) option, my host has cpu 8)
- user-mode-linux - ( i think it starts graphic mode, "i want text only mode!!!" i hope this is somethig i can get success with).
so please tell me any non-priviledge and fully fake or Virtual but working method to mount a disk image file with read-write access. or is there any reverse mount function from qemu or similar. or any script to make img file use as if that is a folder !!!

You can't mount without some cooperation from the kernel, period.
