Here it is :
debian:~# mount -v -t vfat /dev/hda6 /mnt/data/
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda6,
or too many mounted file systems
/dev/hda4 962 2096 9116887+ 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 962 1326 2931831 b Win95 FAT32
/dev/hda6 1327 1691 2931831 b Win95 FAT32
hda5 mounts without any problems. Still puzzled ????
Sometimes Linux works funny.
I even tried to recreate all the extended partitions other than hda5 but still I
get the same error :-) I go into linux after formatting the partition under
windows.
Warm Regards
