$ ../../misc-utils/blkid /dev/ubi0_0
/dev/ubi0_0: UUID="6358dcea-6e46-40c9-8d76-072eac24d909" TYPE="ubifs"

Working

$ ../../mount/mount /dev/ubi0_0 /mnt/key
UBIFS error (pid 28250): ubifs_get_sb: cannot open "/dev/ubi0_0", error -22

*patching UBIFS*

$ sudo ../../mount/mount /dev/ubi0_0 /mnt/key/
Yeah, working !
