A strange message, might not be telling the full story.
Depending on your distribution, its version and its age . . .
It may be as simple as:
My mount point here: /mnt/k321
The image in the current directory: k321.sfs
Code:
sudo mount k321.sfs /mnt/k321
Reading the prompt shown with your code, I presume that you where doing that as "root" - so my sudo above isn't needed.
"mount" **should** auto-detect that it is a file and force the '-o loop' option.
"mount" **should** auto-detect the file type, you shouldn't need the '-t ext3' .
BUT that may well vary with the degree of automation in your distribution.
so (as root in above)
mount -o loop kt_5.1.2-mmcblk0p1-3g.img /private/tmp/image1
Should do the job on any distribution.
