Hi,

What is the output from `cat /proc/partitions` ?

What is the purpose of '-O none' and is that really valid?  It is not
documented (did you mean '-o defaults'?).  Could you try without it?

'mount' also has a '-v' option which might give further clues, or you
could look in `dmesg` for anything related.

Finally, you could try manually running `kldload ext2fs` to make sure
the module is loaded first.

Regards,
