Witam,

I've installed sarge Debian kernel 2.6.8-2-686 with vfat as a module.
You are right. Now it works well.
So, I think bug can be close but good idea is to put in doc or other
faq that backup to hdd needs vfat.
Thanks.

So, creating the floppies implies mounting the floppy images which means
we need vfat support in case syslinux is used. Is that also your
opinion?

If yes, what do you think would be the best place to put this in the
doco? Do you think amending '3.6.2. Kernel Requirements' with the
following would work:

* vfat support in the running kernel for creating syslinux boot 
  floppies (either module or built-in)

Cheers,
Andree
