FAT32 mount problem



I have a Win98 FAT32 partition on /dev/hda1 and it was mountable fine from my Slink system. However, after reformatting and reinstalling Win98 mount stopped working though I have not changed fstab.

When trying to mount it (with mount type vfat), it produces the following message:

/var/log/messages:
Feb 6 21:14:32 mikszath kernel: [MS-DOS FS Rel. 12,FAT 32,check=n,conv=b,uid=0,
gid=0,umask=022,bmap]
Feb 6 21:14:32 mikszath kernel: [me=0xf8,cs=8,#f=2,fs=32,fl=1999,ds=4030,de=0,d
ata=4030,se=0,ts=2161089,ls=512,rc=2,fc=94587]
Feb 6 21:14:32 mikszath kernel: Transaction block size = 512
Feb 6 21:14:32 mikszath kernel: VFS: Can't find a valid MSDOS filesystem on dev
03:01.

commandline:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda1,
or too many mounted file systems


Can anyone tell me what the problem may be?
Thanks
Balint
