If bochs img is not a paritition file but a complete harddisk file, you
would have to use the partitions within uml also.
Normally you use your harddisk files in uml as a super floppy, not
partitioning it, but you can do so.
I think you have to create some ubd devices which correspond to the
partitions and then mount these in fstab.

Never tried it, dunno the devices.
