If a disk image it mounted a second time (can happen in a few ways) it
won't be at /Volumes/Mother/... but at /Volumes/Mounter 1/... Also you
can mount disk images in location other then under /Volumes/...
If you really want to check this you should utilize
DiskImages.framework (IIRC) or possibly use "hdutil info -plist" and
look for your disk image and its current mount location. Then compare
that to your bundles location.
