Hi Joe,

to get vfat working you will need to recompile the kernel. I have a USB hard
disk working in a Wrap with the following modules (from the last voyage
kernel (0.2pre2)):

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y

#
# DOS/FAT/NT Filesystems
#
CONFIG_FAT_FS=m
CONFIG_MSDOS_FS=m
CONFIG_VFAT_FS=m
CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_CODEPAGE=437
CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-1"

#
# Native Language Support
#
CONFIG_NLS=m
CONFIG_NLS_DEFAULT="iso8859-1"
CONFIG_NLS_CODEPAGE_437=m
CONFIG_NLS_ISO8859_1=m

regards
