Thank you for your testing.I also saw the two problems as Jonny said:

(1) mount -p prints "none" type without any error message.

(2) the mounted MSDOS file systems cannot sometimes unmounted.
    I have two VFAT partitions on one IDE drive.
    One can be unmounted correctly
    with 'umount /dos', but the
    other cannot be unmounted with "Device busy" message after
    'umount /dos-d.'
    When typing 'umount /dos-d' before 'umount /dos', the result
    is the same as the above.  /dos-d cannot be unmounted with
    "Device busy."  I call it "un-unmount problem."

    I have not seen the un-unmount problem on a floppy device.:-)

Do -stable users see the same problems, especially on removable
medias?

Don't -current users see the same problems?

Thanks,
