Do you have fat/vfat support available in the kernel or as a
module?  If not, you need to rebuild the kernel and/or
modules with this support.

Are you sure that your Windows 98 partition is FAT16, and not FAT32?

Do you have FAT32 support compiled into your kernel? (you need 2.0.35 or
better to use FAT32).

I'm using Rh 5.2; put  vfat in /etc/fstab;
works fine.

Sorry to start with obvious but did you
compile support for vfat into the kernel
?

I can't mount my win98 partition.

I type:

   mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/hhdos

and linux tells me:

   wrong fs type, or superblock ..etc

Whats wrong?

Stop repeating your self.

What version of RH do you have?  FS type 'vfat' may not be built into
the kernel.
