The DOS file system support is rather obscurely located in the newer "make config" process. You must select "NLS", Native Language Support, and make a few selections to get the kernel configured for various DOS file system access. Don't forget to choose a character set, _e.g._, NLS charset cp437(nls_cp437). The help files using "make config" are fairly clear. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jack Kern Yarmouth, Nova Scotia Debian GNU/Linux
