How to mount linux partition on android?

How to mount partition 2nd on android? Filesystem is ext2. Size is 8 gb, on this partition is installed Linux Ububuntu 13.04 PL. I have got error Device busy. What am I doing wrong?

Detail in console:

app_149@android:/ $ su
root@android:/ # mount

tmpfs /dev tmpfs rw,nosuid,relatime,mode=755 0 0

root@android:/ # fdisk /dev/bloc/mmcblk0

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3880.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

you can't mount something that is already mounted:

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data/sdext2 vfat rw,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=0133,dmask=0002,allow_utime=0020,codepage=cp437,iocharset=iso8859-1,shortname=mixed,errors=remount-ro 0 0

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 - already mounted in /data/sdext2
