I'm having trouble with a command in the 2.4 kernel that worked in 2.2.16. The command:

# mount -t vfat /dev/hda6 /mnt/e

gives the following error:

mount: /dev/hda6 has the wrong major or minor version number

Any ideas?

It sounds like you might have forgotten to compile the "vfat" module into your kernel. Do you remember if, when you compiled, you selected this module?

If you remember not selecting it, you'll have to recompile the kernel with vfat support.

I didn't set that option explicitly, so if it's not on by default I guess that's the problem.

Thanks.
