Well, it's mostly that I want to verify if and what changed in the partition tables (probably just a partition type marker) before I restore the backup in order to make sure that restoring the backup makes sense and fixes my problem before I risk messing up even more if something goes wrong with restoring the backup.
I was thinking about a loop device as well (trying to set up a small size loop device and restoring the backup into that), but have not tried it yet...
