i think it doesnt matter what the user is, this shouldnt
be happening.
We make the source code available, and yet noone here has even sat down
for 30 seconds and gone and checked the kernel msdos mount code and realized
that it almost nothing it can validate a filesystem on.
does that almost nothing include the partition type number?
because i dont see why would the kernel msdos mount code
even try to start mounting an msdos filesystem with type of A6.
Hi Frantisek.
It is not what happened. The -t msdos was forced by you. But you were not
trying to mount a filesystem with type A6. A typo can happen but your
mistake is in your interpretation of what has happened after the typo.
Take a break and then think about it carefully.
