Mounting MS-DOS filesystems
I am running 1.3.1 on a Compaq Deskpro 2000 5120. I have 2 hard drives, pri master is 1.2gb, pri
slave is 630mb. The primary master is Linux 100%, except for a Boot Manager Partition. The
second drive is DOS 6.22, 1 big partition. Whenever I attempt to mount the secondary drive
under Linux (/dev/hdb) I get a message that there is not a valid MS-DOS filesystem on the drive,
and about the only other message that I get that is easily decipherable is Transaction block
size=512" or something to that effect.
Two questions:
1.) Is that "transaction block" the same thing as a cluster size under DOS?
2.) (the most obvious) What am I doing wrong?
The device and mount point, etc are in the /etc/fstab file, which I can send if need be.
Thanks in advance,
Greg Dickinson
