You could check the path with something like 'ls -l'.
On the other hand, you could use 'kpartx' and make the snapshots
partitions actually mountable if you 'speak' the used filesystem. The
benefit would be you only backup teh changed files in an incremental
backup instead of having to save the whole image even with one byte
changed.
In my installations I ahd always been able to just run a baclua-fd
inside the KVM, though.
