vfat not loaded automatically? vfat=fat32 support?
For some reason i am unable to mount my Fat32 partition... here's what i tried to do:
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/hda: 30.0 GB, 30005821440 bytes
240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3876 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 2708 20472448+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/hda2 2709 3875 8822520 f Win95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 2709 3875 8822488+ b Win95 FAT32
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$ sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt/hda5
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda5,
or too many mounted file systems
knoppix@ttyp0[knoppix]$
modprobe vfat returns "modprobe: Can't locate module vfat"
does this mean that vfat is not loaded at startup? If so how can i manually setup the config file or make a proper floppy boot disk? please help! thanks in advance

All I know is that it works for me...
/dev/hda1 on /mnt/hda1 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=000,uid=1000,gid=1000)
/dev/hda5 on /mnt/hda5 type vfat (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=000,uid=1000,gid=1000)
Also, you might want to check /proc/filesystems; here's mine:
Knoppix $ cat /proc/filesys*
nodev rootfs
nodev bdev
nodev proc
nodev sockfs
nodev tmpfs
nodev shm
nodev pipefs
ext2
nodev ramfs
msdos
vfat
iso9660
nodev devpts
nodev usbdevfs
nodev usbfs
nodev autofs
nodev nfs
Halfway down, you should see "vfat". When I mount these FAT32 disks, I don't specify a format (-t option); try it.
