| Hello, I can't mount my FAT32 partition (on sata disk), I've tried a lot a things and ask a lot of people, it's mysterious. That's my fstab line corresponding to this partition : /dev/sda2 /mnt/fat32 vfat defaults 0 0 I've tried to put something else as defaults but it changes nothing. I have this error : >mount: wrong fstype, bad options, bad superblock on /dev/sda2 or too >many mounted file systems The fat32 directory exists and a ntfs partition on the same disk is correcty mounted. And I have included fat support in the kernel. I don't understand. Please help me. Stéphane Schild System : Gentoo 2004.3, kernel 2.6.9 |

Sooo, you're also using Windoze, right? And I'm guessing that you made the partition in that excuse for an OS, right? In that case, it's probably /dev/sda5, because Windoze is so lame it doesn't understand you can have 4 primary partitions. Sybren -- The problem with the world is stupidity. Not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself? |
