vfat bug

[Michael Scondo <michael.scondo@arcor.de>]

Hello..
I've just compiled a new kernel ( 2.6.8.1 ), and now I'm not able to mount my 
fat32 partitions anymore.

mount /dev/hda7 /mnt
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda7,
       or too many mounted file systems
:-(

Every works still fine with 2.6.4, but I'm not sure, whether this occurs due 
to a bug in the kernel or because a wrong build process.
Therefore I'm posting this to the list.

I've just googled about this problem and a few other people seem to have 
problems with fat32, too, but I'm not sure what this means to me.
So could someone tell me please, whether this problem is reproducable or 
already known or if it occurs only at my system ?

Thanks, Micha

However, I've build the kernel at another system ( Debian Woody ):
