Mount location that contains .sparsebundle among others

[PeterPablo]

Hi there!
I got a .sparsebundle directory on a partition of my raspberry pi that is also containing other files. Is it possible to mount the timemachine from that location? (e.g. /mnt/timemachine/PeterPablo.sparsebundle)

I tried

root@horst:~# tmfs /mnt/timemachine/PeterPablo.sparsebundle/ /mnt/tmp/
root@horst:~# ls /mnt/tmp 
ls: cannot access '/mnt/tmp': No such file or directory

I don't think this works with such sparsebundles:

It expects Backups.backupdb in the mountpoint but that doesn't exist, at least on my side.
I'm using a sparsebundle mounted with https://github.com/jief666/hdimount that was created on an SMB share.

I think either the time machine format has changed since this was created or it's different when created over network.

At the time of writing, Backups.backupdb disappeared about 5 years ago.
I was able to recover some files using apfs-fuse and sparsebundlefs
