Strange, but I can mount an ntfs filesystem (dual boot machine) but not the fat32 partition on a new freebsd 6.0 installation. The drive contains three paritions:

/dev/ad0s1 -- 30GB NTFS (winxp) mounted on /winxp
/dev/ad0s2 -- 30GB FAT32 (data to be accessed by both winxp and freebsd 6.0) mount point /data /dev/ad0s3 -- 30GB UFS (or whatever freebsd's file systems are) /ad0s3(blah,blah,blah)

The results I get back from mount are:

mothra# mount -t msdos /dev/ad0s2 /data
mount_msdosfs: /dev/ad0s2: Invalid argument

Are you sure its s2?  What does
   fdisk -s /dev/ad0

show?

I have a 20Gb FAT32 partition mounted right now - made with PartitionMagic rather than XP itself, but I wouldn't expect that to be the problem.
