/sbin/mount and /usr/etc/mount only know how to deal with the filesystem
types "ufs", "nfs" and "pc". If you specify any other filesystem type, it
calls a program named mount_xxx where xxx is the filesystem type. To
mount any filesystem of type "lo" it generates an arg vector similar to an
struct mntent and then calls the program mount_lo via execlp.
If you want to mount any "lo" filesystems, you schould have
/usr/etc/mount_lo available and /usr/etc in your search path.
Add after the line:
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/etc:/usr/ucb
a line :
EXPORT PATH
to the file /etc/rc.local
and your mount will work.
NOTE:
I positively know this for 4.0 and 4.0.1. I hope this will work as well if
you have the NSE extensions for 3.4/5.
