Thanks, Martin. I mention in my post that I have tried "-t msdos" and it
doesn't work. "-t vfat" gives the very same error:
Bart:~# mount /dev/autousb /mnt/usb/ -t msdos
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/autousb,
missing codepage or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so
which gives:
Bart:~# dmesg | tail -2
FAT: invalid media value (0xb9)
VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdf1.
Any suggestion?
