It simply says to mount /hd/baslinux as a loop
device. /hd/baslinux is a file. A file cannot
be mounted directly, so it is mapped to a device.
mount does not do this mapping automatically, so
you have to use the option (-o) parameter.

Of course. Every modification to the BL3 root
filesystem (loop device) is automatically recorded
in fs.img. No special procedure is needed.

Cheers,
Steven
