Right, it's the kernel that knows about filesystems, with the exception
of a few unusual tools like mtools (mdir etc access /dev/fd0 or whatnot
directly)... But you're very right :)

As far as I know, all kernels later than 2.0.34 read Fat32 rather well.
There is an excellent page about Fat32 on Linux at:
http://www-plateau.cs.berkeley.edu/people/chaffee/fat32.html
And includes patches for making kernels older than 2.0.34 read Fat32...
But it would probably be far easier to get 2.0.36 :)

I think RedHat 5.1 and I know 5.2 support Fat32...
If you don't want to upgrade you can probably compile a new kernel for
yourself..
Good luck!!! :)
