Should it perhaps be `mount -t ext2fs` instead of '-t ext2', to match
the name of the kernel module?
You could also try not specifying the '-t' option at all and it may
auto-detect.
If it still does not work, I think ktrace/kdump output would help to see
what is going on, i.e.:
# apt-get install ktrace
# ktrace -- mount -v /dev/da1s1 /mnt/mirror
# kdump -f ktrace.out | gzip > ktrace.txt.gz
