The command should include -t ext2fs, not extfs2, as far as I

There are no "folders" in the UNIX file system hierarchy. The
things you're mentioning are called directories. I know, that's 
"just" terminology, but it's important to use the correct words
context-wise. You don't call the files "sheets of paper", do you? :-)
