There is not a way to do this short of implementing the P/Invoke
yourself or running a process.  See
<http://go-mono.com/docs/monodoc.ashx?tlink=18@ecma%3a285%23Syscall%2f>:

mount: Inherently non-portable across the various Unix flavours, and
will never be supported. Instead, use System.Diagnostics.Process and
invoke the command-line mount(8) program.
