Hello,

I have a 400GB seagate IDE hdd with backed up data that I need to load onto
a machine running freebsd 6.2

The drive is formated for fat32 and when I run the command:

mount -t msdos /dev/ad2s2 /mnt/audio/

I get the following error:

"mountmsdosfs(): disk too big, sorry"

Is there a solution to this?
Thanks.
I'm certainly not an expert, but Google your error message, and you will find
that you need to work some magic with your kernal to access a fat32 partition
bigger than 128GB.
