I've seen Mount vmdk disk ubuntu? and How to mount a virtual hard disk? as well as How to convert vmdk to bootable Disk or usb but I'm still having some problems.
I had a 32GB sd card. I went, in lubuntu, to system-tools gparted and made a partition of 2GB, under Linux File system. Here's my output for sudo fdisk -l:

Basically I'm trying to mount a vsdk android x86 file (originally downlaoded as a .vdi and converted with virtualbox)
I saw an answer that suggested using the following commands:
sudo modprobe nbd
sudo qemu-nbd -r -c /dev/nbd1 ./linux_box/VM/image.vmdk
mount /dev/nbd1p1 /mnt
However when I run the second one (sudo qemu-nbd -r -c /dev/nbd2 ./ok.vmdk, after running sudo apt-get install update and sudo apt-getinstall qemu-utils), followed by sudo mount /dev/nbd2 /mnt, I get:
mount: /mnt: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/nbd2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I set the partition earlier as ext4 (you can see it in the first output), I don't know what other file system to put?
