As for the particular question about lack of /etc/fstab. Are you
getting some kind of error when using the guestmount -i option? It
used to be (a long time ago) that libguestfs inspection[1] could not
handle guests that did not have /etc/fstab, but that should be fixed
in recent versions.
Not really: /etc/fstab is currently used [1] as criteria to detect
whether the content of a partition is the root of a Linux installation.
To check what the inspection of libguestfs would find in an image, run
the 'virt-inspector' standalone tool and check the <mountpoints> and
<filesystems> tags in the resulting XML.
[1] src/inspect-fs.c, check_filesystem function
