bruse · 03-03-2005, 07:37 AM

sir i am using mandrake 10.0
i have the following file system.....

student@Simlab-node3 student]$ cat /proc/filesystems
nodev sysfs
nodev rootfs
nodev bdev
nodev proc
nodev sockfs
nodev futexfs
nodev tmpfs
nodev pipefs
nodev eventpollfs
nodev devpts
ext2
nodev ramfs
nodev devfs
nodev nfs
nodev nfs4
nodev rpc_pipefs
ext3
nodev usbfs
nodev usbdevfs
nodev nfsd
[student@Simlab-node3 student]$

with this can i mount fat32 or ntfs filesystem ...
because this file not having that file system.

You also need ntfs and vfat (FAT32)

I understand English is probably not your first language.
But I don't understand your question.
To mount NTFS filesystem you need the ntfs module,
and to mount FAT32 filesystem you need the vfat module.

You should have these modules when you issue:

Code:

Can you please state your problem. Are you able to
mount NTFS and FAT32 filesystems?

You have the module for NTFS but not for FAT.

What is your problem here?

bruse · 03-03-2005, 08:31 AM

fine
my question is..suppose i download one vfat module RPM packages..

just installation of the packages is enough or should i do anything extra with module directory...

Bruce Hill · 03-03-2005, 08:50 AM

Sorry, sir, but I don't know how Mandrake works -- and it's not
the same as Slackware Linux. You would do well to search our
Mandrake forum.

I am sorry I can't help you with this module. Slackware always
installs it by default.
