As I can see the VFAT is compiled in the kernel, not as a module. Compare: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -i fat CONFIG_X86_MCE_NONFATAL=y # DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems CONFIG_FAT_FS=m CONFIG_VFAT_FS=m CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=852 CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-2" I wonder what is in your /proc/filesystems and /etc/filesystems ? Could you post their contents here? And are you sure that /usr/src/linux/.config belongs to the kernel you actualy run? It would not hurt to modprobe, anyway. ;-) -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by "grep -i virus $MESSAGE"
