You are trying to load vfat/msdos without the necessary kernel modules
loaded. Add msdos and vfat to /etc/modules.

I believe this requires a 2.1.xx kernel OR a patched 2.0.xx kernel.

debugfs should let you take care of these. But be careful, it will let
you do a lot of damage also. Be sure to read the man page first.
Sounds like your some files from /dev may have been damaged. This may
