Issues with trying to mount system in recovery mode

If you are using Magisk you can write a module to overlay those files.
They are obviously 1072 x 1448 PNG images.

If you don't like Magisk you can flash neoglow21.img (in my sig) to recovery.
Then you can mount system and delete 2.png to 6.png and replace 1.png
Code:
mount -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
cp whatever.png /system/media/SleepImageNook/1.png
reboot
Hello Renate. I tried to use Magisk and overlay the files but I had difficulty actually figuring out to overlay the commands as using su resulted with an Authentication failure. Apparently it had something to do with Ubuntu having the root disabled by default so your first method I could not figure out.

So I ended up trying to do the second method and I used neoglow21.img to get the nook into recovery mode but whenever I tried the mount command, I got this back in the terminal:

"mount: /system: mount point does not exist.
dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call".

I'm not very smart when it comes to this stuff so any help would be appreciated on how to mount the system and be able to change my wallpaper. Also your past comments helped me out a lot in rooting my GL4, so thank you very much
