Hi !

(You can use "msdos" instead of "mount_msdos", at least on install disk ;-)
The error come from the partition definition. You must be sure of start and
lenght of it.
Tips: use "fdisk" and note all infos you see (start & lenght in sectors).
Then use disklabel -i <yourdisk>
Create another partition (like "f"), type "MSDOS", offset = start (in sectors),
lenght.
Write and quit.
Then "msdos /dev/wd0f /mnt" work like a charm.
Even in FAT32.
The common error is to make partition begin at sector 0, instead of 63 (for
example).

Hope this can help.
