SubjectFAT32, partition 3, past 8GB
Date
Greetings,

(CC: requested as I am not on lk at home, just work)

In brief:
Running 2.2.1[46], I am unable to mount a vfat partition. The partition is
3.5GB, and starts 8GB into the disk. Win9[58] recognize it, and I used
each to format it. Linux however, does not appear to recognize it as a
valid filesystem. The values it is reading from the superblock look like
garbage. I used cfdisk under Linux to do the partitioning.

Before I dive into the fs code, does this problem sound familar to anyone?
Also, any pointers as to where best to begin would be appreciated.

TIA,

Eli
