Hello people, i have a USB external HD with FAT32 fs. Today i connected it to my FBSD and got the following mesg entry: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 da0: <SAMSUNG SP2514N 0000> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device da0: 1.000MB/s transfers da0: 238475MB (488397168 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 30401C) # ls /dev/da0* /dev/da0 /dev/da0s1 /dev/da0s2 /dev/da0s5 mount_ntfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt #% ok, it worked. Now # mount_ntfs /dev/da0s2 /mnt2 mount_ntfs: /dev/da0s2: Invalid argument #% of course, it is a FAT32 filesystem. Then ... # mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s2 /mnt2 mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s2: Invalid argument # mount_msdosfs /dev/da0s5 /mnt2 mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s5: Invalid argument # dmesg mountmsdosfs(): disk too big, sorry # fsck_msdosfs /dev/da0s2 ** /dev/da0s2 Invalid signature in fsinfo blockfix? [yn] y Floating exception (core dumped) I do not know what else could i do. It was a 250G HG with NTFS. The whole could be mounted by mount_ntfs. Then i split it in one NTFS and one FAT32 using Partition magic. Now i can mount the former and the latter not. On windows there is no problem in mounting. Any tip? Thanks in advance ...
