If he's actually using Slackware 2.3, the kernel version was probably 1.2.8. Unless he's recompiled a newer version of the kernel, or patched the 1.2.8 kernel somehow and recompiled, replacing "msdos" in fstab with "vfat" will fail. VFAT support wasn't integrated into the kernel source until late in the 1.3.x series.
