you can add the mount/umount to the start/stop
addon scripts in /etc/vservers

----
#!/bin/sh
case $1 in
pre-start)
	losetup ...
	mount ...
	;;
post-start)
	;;
pre-stop)
	;;
post-stop)
	umount ...
	losetup -d ...
	;;
*)
	echo $0 pre-start
	echo $0 pre-stop
	echo $0 post-start
	echo $0 post-stop
	;;
esac

but you'll ned to modify the vserver script (one line) to leave the root directory of the vserver before calling post-stop, otherwise you'll get "bla, bla busy ..."
