Try an ext2 file system as an experiment. Also when you mount the disk image you are being sure to mount it at the proper offset of 32256? Otherwise you could be corrupting the partition info.
As for apt-get behaving strange, here is another rootstock wiki: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/ARM/RootfsFromScratch But on your image you have to update your etc/resolv.conf to match that of the host machine. That is machine specific in cases. I'll have to update the gem5 wiki to reflect this.
