The disc was formated under windows using FAT32 format for easy data exchange. Now I try to mount the drive but it failed with the following message: mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat' I startes make oldconfig and checked the created kernel options: # grep FAT .config # DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems CONFIG_FAT_FS=y CONFIG_VFAT_FS=y CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=437 CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="i

When I do mount -t auto /dev/sdf1 /mnt/usb I get mount: unknown filesystem type 'vfat' I checked if the drive is recognized with sudo fdisk -l and the recognized filesystem is W95 FAT32 my kernel is 3.2.0-4-686-pae.

My windows installation went stupid, so I abandonded Bill G and went Suse. I know a little bit, but not enough (obviously). I installed openSUSE 11.1 on my box and I am trying to get access to all my music/movies/etc that were unknown filesystem type stored on a compress, indexed and encrypted NTFS 750 GB SATA hard drive. When I try to get into the drive, I get this error: An error occurred while accessing 'HDD-DS', the system responded: org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.PermissionDeniedByPolicy: org.freedektop.hal.storage.mount-fixed auth_admin_keep_always (<-- action, result) So, being the workarounder that I am, I decided to use an alternate hard drive, format it as FAT with Suse, boot my windows live cd and copy files thussly. I've got an 80GB hdd full of **** (save for 191MB) and, even though the drive was accessable and mountable in Suse BEFORE I booted into a windows environment, I can't mount it. When I formatted it with Suse, I mounted it to /dev/fat1, but now when I try to mount it, I just get an error stating: mount point /dev/fat1 does not exist I'm not even close to ready to give up on Suse, but I REALLY don't want to loose all my music, movies, etc please assist me, if you can.

You definitely do not want to be using it for mount points
