^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
this is the drive with which I'm having problems. Just to clarify (I don't
think my 1st mail was too clear) it's the 2nd partition on the 2nd drive
(primary slave) that won't mount...

wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa
wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): <  36X CD-ROM/VER 1.34>, removable, accel, dma,
iordy

works fine.

> # mount -t msdos /dev/wd1s2 /mnt2
This is where I'm having a problem:

[root@sticky] ~# mount_msdos /dev/wd1s2 /win2
mount_msdos: /dev/wd1s2: Invalid argument
[root@sticky] ~# Feb 23 11:53:59 sticky /kernel: mountmsdosfs(): bad bpb
Feb 23 11:53:59 sticky /kernel: mountmsdosfs(): bad bpb

This is what fdisk wd1 shows:

The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 11,(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT)
    start 63, size 1644993 (803 Meg), flag 80 (active)
        beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1;
        end: cyl 203/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 5,(Extended DOS)
    start 1645056, size 4693248 (2291 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 204/ sector 1/ head 0;
        end: cyl 785/ sector 63/ head 127

Is the 2nd partition supposed to be wd1s2?
