Description of problem:
The Laptop can't boot when I add FAT32 partitions. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.With the linuxconf add a FAT32 partition
2.Reboot the PC
3.
	

Actual Results:  When the PC is boot, when linux is mounting all the 
partitions ( / /boot, ...) appears a lot numbers and after this appears 
and the end a warning message "WARNING: FAT32 IS STILL ALFA"

Additional info:

This partitions can be added anytime in a terminal. ( mount -f 
vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/dos_c ). But this information can't be in the mtab 
file, because if exists in this file occurs the problem.

Comment 1 Trond Eivind Glomsrxd 2002-01-06 12:44:15 UTC

This isn't a crash, it's just checking the filesystem. Turn it off in /etc/fstab
(this has nothing to do with "file", which is a little utility for determining
file types).
