    > I am having trouble mounting my windows partition from the fstab file. I have an entry in fstab that looks like this "/dev/ad6s5 /mnt/disk2 msdosfs rw 0 0". When I try to mount the disk I get the following error "mount: disk2: unknown special file or file system". What makes things even more strange is that I can mount the slice just fine when I issue mount_msdosfs from the command prompt. Does anyone have any ideas?

    I believe that fstab wants 'msdos' and not 'msdosfs'.
