Then you're still missing something in the kernel. Turn on anything |
| 13 |
vaguely fattish and dossish in the kernel config. Also maybe try |
| 14 |
to mount it with -t fat32. And please paste the exact command and |
| 15 |
output given. |

Also try creating a dos file system on a dummy file and mounting it |
| 18 |
on a loop device and see if that works. And try creating and using |
| 19 |
a fat16 file system instead. |
