Put the mount command

terminal session in the VM I get the message
Yeah, that's not at all right.

/etc/profile.d is intended for shell snippets that are run when shells
start (so every login and also when you start additional shells).

You don't need a script at all to mount a filesystem at boot, you need
to put it in /etc/fstab.  For this, add an entry like:

hostfiles /user/local/src virtiofs defaults 0 0

Thanks Chris

I don't see virtiofs as a file type in man fstab. Is there documentation?
