How to test Hammer fs

Hello!

I'd like to check out the HAMMER filesystem on my own, but I am having 
trouble to make it work. I downloaded the ISO-images of the daily 
distribution 1.13 (from 14.5 and 15.5). I am able to newfs_hammer -L 
Test /dev/da1 and it is creating the filesystem. The problem is that I 
cannot mount it. Using mount_hammer /dev/da1 prints out an error message 
like vfsload(hammer): No such file or directory (or the like). I 
searched for hours in the archives but it seems that nobody have had 
this kind of problem before. First I used a VMWare machine within Linux, 
later I also tried to use real hard disks on real PCs but the same 
problem persists.
Could somebody give me a hint how to make it work?

Thanks,
Damian
