I'm trying to mount this external drive but I'm having no success. As
you can see from dmesg ( below ) the drive is correctly recognized.
I get the same response from 3.1 as well. What does "Invalid argument"
mean?
thanks
# mount -t msdos /dev/sd0e /mnt
mount_msdos: /dev/sd0e on /mnt: Invalid argument
