Are you using modules?? If so, try loading it before you try and mount the partition. modprobe vfat also, are you sure its a vfat partition? second, are you sure that is the correct partition number? fdisk -l /dev/hda will help out with that. just making sure. jason > > mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /mnt/windows/ > mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda2, > or too many mounted file systems > (aren't you trying to mount an extended partition, > instead of some logical partition inside?) > > > what i have is 2 hd one on an ata66 card and one is ide -- > i am trying to mount the ide that has win98 on it > but anytime i seem to want to do it -- this error pops his head up > > Thanks > Alan > > > > ******************************************* > * .~.
