    Hi list,

    i have a problem mounting my mp3player, attached via umass on
    FreeBSD 5.2.1. It is recogniced correctly (from my point of view).

    # uname -a
    FreeBSD bensons.bejuwg.intern 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 #0: Wed Mar 24 02:01:10 CET 2004 benny@bensons.bejuwg.intern:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/BENSONS i386
    #

    [snap]

    option MSDOSFS is compiled into kernel

    # grep -c MSDOSFS /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/BENSONS
    1
    # kldload msdosfs
    kldload: can't load msdosfs: File exists

    Now when i try mounting, i recieve the following error.
    # mount -t msdosfs /dev/da0s1 /mnt/mass
    msdosfs: /dev/da0s1: Invalid argument
    #

    Even better a
    # dd if=/dev/da0s1 of=temp count=1
    1+0 records in
    1+0 records out
    512 bytes transferred in 0.005233 secs (97844 bytes/sec)
    # strings temp
    FAT16
    #

    The device is found by fdisk, i "could" do a newfs for sure and
    furthermore i can mount it under Solaris 9, OSX and Billy-OS but
    not FreeBSD 5.2.1....

    Help would be greatly appreciated :)

    Cheers
    benny
