you use a recent one.]

Normally, this isn't the right directory.  Before installation, you
have to use the `test-groff' script which explicitly uses -F to add
proper paths to the fonts which are not installed yet.  After
installation, a path to the PS font description files looks like

  /usr/local/share/groff/1.18/font/devps

so it is indeed possible that groff doesn't find your font.

It's not necessary to mount the font in advance.  You can safely
ignore this.
