What you see via UMS is only one of the partitions on the device. That partition contains the files that are modifiable by you or system software. The root filesystem (with /etc and fstab) is in another partition that is read-only and isn't exported via UMS. The easiest way to see what is on the device is to install something that gives you a shell, and then browse the device that way. You can install pbterm to get an interactive shell on the device itself, or install utelnetd to get telnet access from your desktop. I recommend that you familiarize yourself with the whole system before doing anything drastic like changing the filesystem exported by UMS.
