I have never had problems mounting Windows File Systems
before (with -t vfat), but I have one here on a USB disk that is
either damaged (unlikely) or something Ive never seen before.
Looking at the list from /sbin/fdisk I see:
6 FAT16
4 FAT16 (<32M)
e FAT16 (LBA)
b Win95 FAT32
c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
( + FAT12 and Hidden FAT FS's whatever they are)
I have previously (currently can mount) mounted type 6 FAT16 (on a USB Key)
and type b (on partition #1 of my hard disk,- containing Win98).
The CURRENT disk Im trying to mount is a 20GB USB (freestanding) disk,
and fdisk reports type c, Win95 FAT32 LBA. [ The disk is ok,- I previously
had it formatted as ext2 and everything was just fine ]
Fdisk recongizes it, but mount says there is a problem.
Do I have to do anything special for this disk type (other than say -t vfat)?
The disk DID mount just fine on Win2000 after I formatted it a couple three
days ago, and I doubt that it has been damaged since,- but I will recheck
on Win2000. is the LBA a problem? If so how to get Win2000 to do a format
without LBA...
Im confused.
