Hi Tony, i provided patches for dosfstools for some time now, you need at least v3.0.14. If your system do not provide it you will need to grub it here: http://daniel-baumann.ch/gitweb/?p=software/dosfstools.git -- Regards, Oleksij -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
