We don't need it. The check in msdosfs_vfsops.c can be killed, it
doesn't aply anymore.

Are you saying if you kill msdosfs_vfsops.c dfly will mount the hard 
drive and ,if so, how do you kill it?

Can you try this patch and tell us if mounting works:

external usb hard drive

2006-10-01 Thread Bryan Berch
I got a usb external hard drive that is 160 gb, but I can not mount it.  
I get the error too big sorry.   I can mount it in FreeBsd 6.1 by 
adding the following option in my custom kernel.


option MSDOSFS_LARGE

I didn't find that option in DragonFlyBSD LINT.  Is it there and I 
missed it or is there another way to mount it.  I don't really want to 
repartition the drive.


Any help greatly appreciated.

Bryan
