Any thoughts on this? I have a second hard drive located at HDD and it is a single partition 80GB drive. When I try to mount it as root I get the error "mount: fs type fat not supported by kernel." I currently have fat support loaded as a module. It shows up when I do lsmod, but its not in the kernel. At least it doesn't show up when I do a "cat /proc/filesystems."


Sorry I don't have an answer for you, but check your clock. Your message is showing up with the wrong year (2002)

Its "vfat" rather than "fat" (to support more than 8.3 filenames) and its normally limited to 2GB. The win95 vfat32 I've not tried mounting (I don't have any partitions of that type) so that I have no experience of so cannot say if it works or not.
