how did you image it?
If you used something like dd, you can then copy the image created and mount it as a loopback filesystem. I would lay out the partitions/mounts/filesystems as you like, and then mount the image file, and copy things as needed with the appropriate arguments/switches to keep permissions intact. You could rsync if you wished.

NAME
hmsa - Atari MSA / ST disk image creator and converter
SYNOPSIS
hmsa diskimage [disksize]
DESCRIPTION
Hmsa is little program to create compressed Atari MSA (Magic Shadow Archiver) and uncompressed ST disk images and to convert disk images
between these two formats.
MSA and ST image format saving code is same as in Hatari itself.
USAGE
If you give only one parameter, the file name of an existing MSA or ST disk image, this image will be converted to the other disk image
format under a suitable new file name.
If the file does not exist and you give also a disk size:
SS Single Sided (360KB)
DS Double Sided (720KB)
HD High Density (1.44MB)
ED Extended Density (2.88MB)
An empty disk of the given size will be created.
Disk image format is recognized based on the file name extension (either .msa or .st).
EXAMPLES
Create a normal double sided empty ST disk image:
hmsa blank.st DS
Convert an MSA format disk image to an ST format one:
hmsa disk.msa
