You also need to specify the vfat file system when you mount a

which will give you the truncated file names.

Well, the official Debian position is to link to the 2.0.32 headers,
however it should probably also work with 2.0.3{3|4}, as I doubt that
there are any significant changes (although I haven't checked).

Yes I did the make modules and make modules_install, but I left that out
since I didn't get far enough for that to be an issue.

Thanks. Looks like I had more than one problem here.
I take it I should reinstall the 2.0.32 kernel headers package then

it. This whole setup isn't very clear, but I think you've got me headed
in the right direction.

Just a quick question... I have a plug & play soundcard (sb clone).
Right now I have the kernel using it as WSS. The sound often cracks,
and I can only control DSP & Mic volume with mixers. Is this a problem
with WSS, or could it be a problem with my isapnp.conf file? I just
