Disk too big in Gnome #1

Hi Vermaden, Thank you for this automount port. I installed it on fluxbox and it worked straight away. I have logged in to Gnome now and get this error. Of course, I will try to solve it from the conf but I just wanted to inform you about it.

mount_msdosfs: /dev/msdosfs/LACIE: Disk too big, try '-o large' mount option: Invalid argument

Thanks, Chris

To add some extra info, it did eventually mount. The first time (when it worked), I didn't have multiple external devices mounted. The second time, I booted with an audio player. This was mounted. After I unmounted it, I still got errors when trying (switching on) the LACIE, but it just took a moment to work.

Hi,

thanks for "bug report", I always used this option, but forgot to add it to the default msdos mount options :)

I will add it and let You know about the new version.

Regards, vermaden

After I had time to check the 'automount' script, it has the -o large option.

Also, 'automount' uses RAW device names (/dev/da0 or /dev/da1s1), it does not use /dev/msdosfs/LABEL or anything like that, so maybe You used something else (like HALd) for example.

This also can be configures, PC-BSD has HALd configured to use -o large option for msdosfs mounts, check their code repository.

Thank you, vermaden.

Oh, sorry for my mistake. I will try to turn that off if I can. Seems to be conflicting with the automount port.
