Well, the original problem remains:
how to make such mounts permanent?
Edit fstab or mtab?

Normally: /etc/fstab
However, that mount is not going to work until you
do the necessary insmod. I suggest you put the insmod
in /etc/rc followed by the mount (on the next line).

Straight to the heart!
Yes, It's the only way drive mounts.
All other options resulted in a strange
kernel behavior: the '/proc' becomes empty!

(For instance, '/DOS' mount found in the mtab only).

As I said before, /etc/mtab ( = /proc/mounts ) simply
records the current mounts. It is not editable.
On the other hand, /etc/fstab contains instructions
that tell the kernel what to mount. It is editable.

Sorry for the mess, I was wrong, fstab is that way.
But where is the '/DOS' mount hiding?
