I'd say this is a deficiency with the msdosfs code. I've created some "partitions" with bochs (installed Win95 OSR2.. disk image was like 500mb.. not fat32), and after I vnconfig'd it, I could not mount -t msdos it because of the same error (bad bpb). Win95 sure grok'd it. - alex To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
