That's true, but if we knew an easy way to fix that, we would do it a long time ago.
BTW, you can also try chroot-ing to /mnt2 before kldload-ing modules.
But, yes, I totally agree that the layout of our livecd environment is not very
convenient.

P.S.
For an example (one of many) of how you can make things more convenient for
yourself:
