Please help with the following issue: I am trying to mount external USB Windows disk drive to my FreeBSD system. After connecting the drive, the following log entries are created: Aug 10 18:23:56 ott kernel: ugen2.2: at usbus2 Aug 10 18:23:56 ott kernel: umass0: on usbus2 Aug 10 18:23:56 ott kernel: umass0: SCSI over Bulk-Only; quirks = 0x0000 Aug 10 18:23:57 ott kernel: umass0:0:0:-1: Attached to scbus0 Aug 10 18:23:57 ott kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus0 target 0 lun 0 Aug 10 18:23:57 ott kernel: da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device Aug 10 18:23:57 ott kernel: da0: 40.000MB/s transfers Aug 10 18:23:57 ott kernel: da0: 152627MB (312581808 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 19457C) Mounting the drive gives the following error: # mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt/ mount_msdosfs: /dev/da0s1: Invalid argument In the /var/log/messages the following message appears: Aug 10 18:27:40 ott kernel: mountmsdosfs(): bad FAT32 filesystem The drive is OK and works fine with Windows. Also, USB flash thumb drives work fine, when used in the same manner with my FreeBSD. System version is 8.0-STABLE, but this is probably irrelevant here. best regards, Ott Köstner
