I have the same bug. I can't mount FAT32 partition. In my fstab I had: /dev/hda5 /mnt/respaldo vfat auto,exec,dev,suid,umask=0 0 0 Partition mounted automaticaly at start. Now appears in the boot log the same phrase: "mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdxx, or too many mounted file systems" I tried: /dev/hda8 /mnt/respaldo vfat auto,defaults,iso-8859-1 0 0 but i had the same error. I had the same problem - I could not mount vfat partitions. In kernel 2.6.7-1.456 from rawhide everything seems to be fine. The same prolem still happens in kernel 2.6.7-1.457. Please see : [PATCH] FAT: doesn't recognize "iocharset=utf8" and doesn't useNLS_DEFAULT http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0406.2/1218.html $mount -o utf8 /dev/hdxx /mnt/xxx This option work well. Isn't my posting a bug? I checked mount -o iocharset=utf8 /dev/hdxx /mnt/xxx with 2.6.7-1.494.2.2 kernel and it works. I also noticed that there was a small update in documentation (/usr/share/doc/kernel-doc-2.6.7/Documentation/filesystems/vfat.txt). For example compare kernel-doc-2.6.7-1.494.2.2 and kernel-doc-2.6.6-1.435 - this lines were added: "NOTE: "iocharset=utf8" is not recommended. If unsure, you should consider the following option instead." How about closing this bug? Should be "these lines" - sorry! |
