I guess that "plugin miscfiles /dev/hda3" is not needed, device file
is normally created in setupfs. Adding this line probably just creates
another problem, unrelated to the one you are hunting for.

I would try to boot the node anyhow you can (probably without setupfs)
and then try to do the mount by hand using bpsh, something like:

 bpsh 1 mknod /dev/hda3 b 3 3
 bpsh 1 e2fsck /dev/hda3
 bpsh 1 mkdir /scratch
 bpsh 1 mount /dev/hda3 /scratch

and watch for errors.
