[Q] How to extract .img 'data' type files?

I'm unable to extract the files from the firmware upgrade .img file for my Iberry BT10 tablet.
I get the following error :-
$ sudo mount -o loop -t ext2 m801_mtds.img /tmp/iberry
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop0,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
$
When I check the file type, it gives me:-
]$ file m801_mtds.img
m801_mtds.img: data
]$
Anyone know how I could extract the files from the .IMG file?

I'd guess that the script they're using to start it isn't set up for the path storage is mounted to on the N10. I'd check myself, but it seems you need to download the whole thing to just get the script, and I"m not doing that.
If that's the case, it should be a pretty easy fix.
I know this an old thread but i would try
Code:
cd /storage/emulated/legacy/bt5/

i've followed a tutorial when they said if we are an error at this step, it's certainly because OS can't support loop device, but i have have test and loop devices is supported...
Anybody else has ever had this problem

It would be really useful if you added :
1. The rom you're on
2. Magisk version
3. Magisk manager version
4. The module you're trying to install
5. Have you tried any other modules
