Subject:   mount win98 HD -- question newbie

hello, got freebsd 4.2 installed and i'm trying to mount a windows 98 drive
as slave.
the capacity of the win98 HD is 8gig. i tried to mount it as -t msdos but
freebsd truncates it.
a quick calculation showed that it actualy truncates it to 2gig, which makes
sence as this is the limit of fat-16 (i think...).
i dont see any option for fat-32 though. when i was looking to mount an NT
drive, i had to recompile with:

options NTFS

is there a similar option for win98 (fat-32) so i can mount that fs?

thanx a lot
