title: mount: you must specify the filesystem type
body: <p>I was trying to execute qemu while following the qemu/linaro tutorial,
  <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Virtual_ARM_Linux_environment" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Virtual_ARM_Linux_environment</a></p>
  <p>I was executing the command,</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>sudo mount -o loop,offset=106496 -t auto vexpress.img /mnt/tmp</p>
  <p>mount: you must specify the filesystem type</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>so i did fdisk on the img file and got the following,</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System</p>
  <p>vexpress.img1   *          63      106494       53216    e  W95 FAT16 (LBA)</p>
  <p>vexpress.img2          106496     6291455     3092480   83 Linux</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>The filesystem is Linux according to the fdisk command. But I get error,</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>sudo mount -o loop,offset=106496 -t Linux vexpress.img /mnt/tmp</p>
  <p>mount: unknown filesystem type 'Linux'</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>Kindly help.</p>
