Greets all.
My distro is Slackware 11, with a custom compiled kernel at 2.6.17.13 on a Compaq laptop.
I've never had this happen before building this kernel, but I can't mount my thumb drive. I tried putting both /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 in my fstab, and tried it from the command line with
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/thumb
and it keeps telling me the same thing...that "wrong fs type or bad superblock" message.
Like I said, this has never been a problem before (while running a stock kernel), and it works just fine when I plug it into my Mac so I know my thumb drive is ok. The usb-storage module is loaded according to lsmod. Is there something I might've taken out of my kernel config that would cause this? Or is there something else I need to load with a 2.6 series kernel?
Thanks for the help fellas.
