I don't see you forcing an fstype when you do the mount.
Here's a quick way to do the probe (names taken from the mount(1)
manpage)
for i in auto ext2 ext3ext2 ext3 adfs affs autofs coda coherent cramfs devpts efs ext hfs hpfs iso9660 jfs minix msdos ncpfs nfs ntfs proc qnx4 reiserfs romfs smbfs sysv
tmpfs udf ufs umsdos vfat vxfs xenix xfs xiafs
do
echo attempting type "'$i'"
if mount -f $i -o ro,loop,nodev,noexec forensics/images/hda1.dd mnt/boot
then
break
done
done
(the for i line and the list of FS types is one line. the second line is 'do'

Powerful committed communication, reaching through fear, uncertainty and
doubt to touch the jewel within each person and bring it to life.
