those need some filesystem utilities to work,
I assume you do not have them instaled

as ext2/3 skips pretty soon too, I would also
suspect that your /dev/loop0 isn't configured
properly ...

make sure that you have the filesystem utilities
for the various filesystems installed and that
they are supported by the kernel ...

adding -v or -vv or even -vvv to the above line
might give some more clues ...
