Then you're still missing something in the kernel. Turn on anything vaguely fattish and dossish in the kernel config. Also maybe try to mount it with -t fat32. And please paste the exact command and output given. Also try creating a dos file system on a dummy file and mounting it on a loop device and see if that works. And try creating and using a fat16 file system instead. Benno -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
