ext4fs can't find ext4 filesystem on mount

I'm trying to mount an iso on my ubuntu 11.04 natty

when I

df - T 

I get that ext4 is my filesystem

However when I try to mount the iso using the

mount -o loop -t ext4 ....

I get :

can't find ext 4 filesystem

Any solutions to that?

Thanks for your help

In the mount command, the -t parameter specifies the type of the filesystem being mounted, not the place where the directory is where the new filesystem will be mounted onto. You say that the filesystem you're about to mount is an ISO file. So the type is probably iso9960.

This question really belongs on superuser or serverfault.
