Here is the code snippet that gnap_overlay runs on the "Formatting..."
part :
gbegin "Formatting ${OUTPUT}"
mkfs.msdos "${OUTPUT}" > /dev/null 2>&1
gtest $?
The [ !! ] is written by gtest if an error code is set by the previous
command. So it's the mkfs.msdos that failed. I suppressed the output
(might not be a good idea) so you obviously miss the message. Try
"mkfs.msdos /dev/hdc1" directly and see what happens.
My wild guess : a required msdos/fat/vfat module is missing in your
brand-new kernel.
