Hi I already posted this problem once and I have tried to solve this on my own but I wasnt successfull. I have added my Fat and Fat32-Partitions to my fstab and two of the four get mounted without any problems. But when I try to mount the primary partitions on my first and third drive I get the following error messages : root@avalon /mnt mount -t msdos /dev/ad4s1 I msdosfs: /dev/ad4s1: Invalid argument root@avalon /mnt mount -t msdos /dev/ad0s1 C msdosfs: /dev/ad0s1: Invalid argument Messages of these kind appear in /var/log/messages. I have checked the filesystem from Win2k and they are okay. Sep 4 15:55:10 avalon kernel: Next free cluster in FSInfo (4294967295) exceeds maxcluster (1034161) Strangely I was until recently able to mount /dev/ad4s1/, it seems it just stopped working yesterday - and I did neither change the filesystem nor my kernel or anything. Please enlighten me what is wrong. Bye Stefan
