I never could get the mtools to have full functionality... especially on logical drives in extended partitions for dos. Is that how you do it? just do a mcopy a: /dos/e? and it'll hunt for logical partition named E:? I tried mcopy a: e: and no go (a while back in FreeBSD).
I got around it by just mounting my drives and manually copying them.... mmove should ignore perms and multiple file systems, the mv command freaks out when i move from partition to partition because mved file retain old perms... so it makes sense that it'll 'fail' on a destination fat drive.
