How to mount ext2fs correctly

I am trying to mount an ext2fs hard drive (da1) that I formated with gparted in Ubuntu.

# kldload ext2fs

man ext2fs(5)

The # mount -t ext2fs /dev/da1s1 /mnt command returns
Code:
mount: /dev/da1s1: No such file or directory


And the # mount -t ext2fs /dev/da1 /mnt command returns
Code:
mount: /dev/da1: Invalid argument


What am I doing wrong?
 
Making assumptions, probably. Is da1 the correct drive? Did you partition it? What does gpart show da1 say is on it?
 
Code:
[CMD]root@builder:/root # gpart show da1[/CMD]
=>        34  3907029101  da1  GPT  (1.8T)
          34        2014       - free -  (1M)
        2048  3907026944    1  linux-data  (1.8T)
  3907028992         143       - free -  (71k)
 
There it is. GPT partitions are used with a p notation, like /dev/da1p1. The easy way to see what is on a drive is to look in /dev/:

ls /dev/da1*
 
The example can't anticipate where a filesystem is located, which could be any type of device path.
 
Code:
[hd_scania@trueos] ~% sudo mount -t ext2fs /dev/ada0p23 /data
mount: /dev/ada0p23: Operation not permitted

My path is correct (hims is wrong) but ‘‘operation not permitted’’, what’s wrong?
