1. Please direct all questions to questions@freebsd.org - the hackers
list is not the correct place to send this material.
2. You need to use mount, not mount_mfs (which is for memory, not UFS,
filesystems). Yes, there probably should be a mount_ufs too just
for orthogonality's sake but there isn't - I've complained about
the issue already before, and to deaf ears. mount = mount_ufs. :-)
