RE: Ok heres my problem



It looks like the vfat partition type is not supported by the kernel your
running.  Are you using modules??  If so, try loading it before you try and
mount the partition.

modprobe vfat

also, are you sure its a vfat partition?  second, are you sure that is the
correct partition number?  fdisk -l /dev/hda will help out with that.  just
making sure.
