I am new to file system. I have file system file with name rootfs.ext3 and when I mount it to some directory , I don't see any "sda" directory into it so that this file system file could be mounted on linux partition.

mount -o loop rootfs.ext3 /media/fuse/

ls

bin  examples  init   libexec   lost+found  proc  sbin32  tmp
dev  home      lib     mnt      root  share   usr
etc  include   mnth    sbin      var

Could any one please point me out how could I provide /dev/sda to this file system file rootfs.ext3 ?

Thanks

With the command 

mount -o loop rootfs.ext3 /media/fuse/

you have already mounted a loop device via the file rootfs.ext3, that contains a file system image. The file system is mounted in /media/fuse.
