  hlermen2: ~ $ mdir x:
   Volume in drive X has no label
   Volume Serial Number is 1234-5678

what mtools version do you have?

  hlermen2: ~ $ mtools -V       
  Mtools version 3.9.1, dated 14 May 1998


also, my otpions in /etc/mtools.conf are:

  MTOOLS_SKIP_CHECK=1
  MTOOLS_LOWER_CASE=1
  MTOOLS_NO_VFAT=1
  partition=1 
  offset=128

(the hdimage's tail isn't part of the file as long as its not used.
 It will grow over the time).
