Subject:   Mounting large FAT32 partition truncates filesystem?
Message-ID:  <1036153320.341.11.camel@miniluv.zip-it.org>

Hi,

I recently tried to mount a FAT32 file system (formatted to 80GB, under
Windows 2K) under FreeBSD.  The only problem is that the filesystem has
been truncated to 20GB!  Now, booting into Windows shows it has also
been truncated.  Help!

Does FreeBSD trash volumes that it assumes are 'too big'?

cheers,
Will
