Hmm, well, I guess you could compile it into the kernel (or as a module, whatever..), but since you're pretty new to Linux, that's probably not an option. I use SuSE 6.1 myself, and if I'm correct, the default kernel has support for umsdos, so you might try replacing 'vfat' with 'umsdos'. Also, and this is probably a lot simpler, you can add a mount point with YaST (not sure about YaST2, never seen it). Simply choose the following: Adjustment of installation -> Set target partitions/filesystems It's as simple as that! See ya, Emerald
