That's true for my MDK 9.1 also.
[solomon_at_shlomo1 solomon]$ cat /etc/filesystems
ext2
nodev proc
nodev devpts
iso9660
reiserfs
vfat
That being the case, I don't see why Behdad's solution of changing from auto
to vfat worked (but as you already know, it did work). BTW, as I already
wrote to Tzafrir (off the list), with both auto and vfat, mount shows:
/dev/sda1 on /mnt/removable type vfat
(rw,nosuid,nodev,iocharset=utf8,umask=0,user=solomon).
So it seems that although the change from auto to vfat is the answer, there's
some other problem that I don't see here.
