Making a script executable

Hi, I'm trying to make a script executable but not having much luck with it:

I've put the following into a file called mg.

mount /dev/hdc7 /mnt/macosx -thfsplus

I have chmod a+x mg

This is what the permissions look like for mg:

-rwxr-xr-x    1 edunbar edunbar       38 Oct  4 20:20 mg

When I try to run it from the command line (bash) I get:

bash: mg: command not found

2nd question: I probably have to be root to mount a hfs+ partition... how 
can I build that into the script?

Eric.
