Yeap, to have a working FS you need a way to the layered approach know
about that FS.

By layered approach I mean the way unix has, at least for the past
twenty years, organazied the access to FS: via VFS.

In a roughly way: you have to mount, under the 'laws' of VFS, a FS,
which means put an access point/node in the hierarchy of the actual
all FSs tree. Direct to the point: VFS abstracts all the fundamental
operations over your FS, so other apps do not have to know how to
access specificaly the yours.
