mp = dokan.mount(fs ,'u' ,fsname='memfs', volname='memfs')
time.sleep(10000)

I got a solution!!!!
If I use the foreground=True option while mounting, there is no pickeling and 
py2exe runs like a charm. I used an own thread for mounting with the thread 
module.

The thread is like this:

    def _mount_thread_windows(self,*args):
        "Thread where the mount process runs"
        try:
            from fs.expose import dokan
        except:
            print("""Couldnt import Dokan, please reinstall it from:""")
            print("""http://dokan-dev.net/en/download""")
        self.mount = dokan.mount(self.fs_obj ,self.mountfolder ,fsname='FlexFS', volname='FlexFS',foreground=True)

Started with:

    def windows_mount(self,path=None):
        "Start the mount thread"
        self.mountfolder = 'x:'
        self._print("""Mounting: "%s" """%self.mountfolder)
        thread.start_new_thread(self._mount_thread_windows,(None,))
        self.mounted = True
        self._print("done")
        return True

Umounting works like:

    def windows_umount(self):
        self._print('Unmounting: %s'%self.mountfolder)
        from fs.expose import dokan
        done = False
        counter = 0
        while not done:
            counter += 1
            try:
                dokan.unmount(self.mountfolder)
                #~ self.__log('Umount: Umount done')
                done = True
            except:
                #~ self.__log('Umount: Umount error %s'%counter)
                time.sleep(1)

        self.mounted = False
        self._print('Done')

Without pickling other restrictions are gone, too.

fe: no logging or the use of xmlrpc library in your Filesystem.

I created a lib that should solve the problem and doesnt need to pickle the 
filesystem. Plus it uses automatically fuse or dokan with the same interface. I 
hope this is usefull.

"""
fs.expose.mounter
=================

Expose an FS object fuse and dokan with a consistent usage.

This module provides the necessary interfaces to expose an FS object over
dokan or fuse, it checks automaticalli what to use.

to mount your Filesystem, do the following:

    >>> from fs.memoryfs import MemoryFS
    >>> from fs.expose import mounter
    >>> fs = MemoryFS()
    >>> mt = mounter.Mounter(fs,"Testdrive")
    >>> mt.mount()
    >>> mt.path
    '/home/"username"/Testdrive'
    >>> mt.unmount()
This should mount correct under windows, linux and mac.
