Why don't you use gbde. It is in your distro at /sbin/gbde
Make a file with dd and format is with gbde and newfs:

dd if=/dev/random of=file bs=1k count=1000
gbde init /dev/md0
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f file
gbde init /dev/md0
gbde attach /dev/md0
newfs /dev/md0.bde
mount /dev/md0.bde /mnt

#and you are ready to use the filesystem at /mnt
#watch out for the sequence of umounting:

umount /dev/md0.bde
gbde detach /dev/md0

#for mounting you do:

gbde attach /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0.bde /mnt

If you dont have a "/etc/libmap.conf" file, you have to make it yourself,
and fill it with the information above.
It tells the dynamic linker wich executable, the name between [ ],
which dynamic library file it has to substitute for the library file it asks.
So in your case, if the executable:
 
"/usr/local/lib/linux-flashplugin6/libflashplayer.so"

asks for the dynamic library: 

libpthread.so.0

the dynamic linker loads instead the library:

pluginwrapper/flash6.so

It is very handy if you have to use an old version of an executable
with a latest version of a library.
