mount EFS image   
Hi all!
I have EFS image, that obtained with the command mkefs.
In QNX, it is possible to mount the images in different file systems (img, iso, qnx4) with, for example, the following 
sequence of commands:

devb-loopback blk cache=128k,auto=none loopback fd=/tmp/q4.img
mount  -tqnx4 /dev/lo0 /q4flash

How can i mount efs-image? 
Command "mount" requires to indicate filesystem type , but "mount" description (in utilities references) hasn't efs file
 system.
or Is it required an alternative method?

Thanks!

Hi Oleg,

As I can see, you should use flashctl utility for the mounting purpose.

For example:

>> flashctl -p *.efs -n /mnt/flash -m
