I wrote it in under an hour, right before I went to bed. I've attached the
source code here but be warned: its very ugly. Very little error checking.
Expects fdisk to work right (which in turns means it assumes fdisk is being
passed a valid image with a valid parition table).

When I have some free time I'll try to clean it up. Right now it's full
of ugly hacks. (It was originally meant to be a shell script not a C program,
only my shell programming skills did not extend so far.)
