Impossible. There is no such thing as a RAW filesystem. There are no files in the raw partition. Only your application (ie, database) knows what is in that raw area. When you mount a real filesystem, you create a directory in the parent. The mount command must connect the new filesystem into the parent. You can't mount a raw partition nor can you create a directory in the raw area--there simply is nothing there but random bits known only to the application.
