Subject: 2.6.21.2 and vfat

Hi,

Since 2.6.21 I can't mount my usb key (vfat).
I don't know if it's related to the vfat patch in 2.6.21.2....

Here is the dmesg error parts:

FAT: invalid media value (0xb9)
VFS: Can't find a valid FAT filesystem on dev sdc.


Tell me if you need more infos.

Is it definitly on sdc ? Unless you reformatted it, chances
are you want to be mounting sdc1

It's the same with sdc1

Note: I'm on a 64-bit machine.

here is my dmesg (nls_cp437 loaded after I see this error on dmesg)

exactly the same error ? (the dmesg only listed the sdc errors)
what does fdisk -l /dev/sdc look like ?
does fsck.vfat /dev/sda1 find any errors?

Sorry now it's ok...
I've do an mkfs.vfat and it's good now.

Sorry for this "stupid" post ;-)
