Hi,
I don't want to touch the installation notes, since I normally touch
only src and sometimes one or two ports, so can someone review and
apply the following patch?
Using "mount -t msdos" is the deprecated way of mounting an msdos
partition. The "correct" way is "mount -t msdosfs".
There has been some compatibility glue in mount(8) to
silently convert "mount -t msdos" to "mount -t msdosfs" for a while now.
However, this leads to inconsistencies.....such as,
you can do "mount -t msdos", but "umount -t msdos" does not work.
( http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=79296 ).
The best thing to do is to tell people to always do "mount -t msdosfs".
Thanks.
