fatfs: bogus cluster size is *not* an error message. It just says that Linux has recognised a vfat32 filesystem correctly. It is safe to ignore the message. The only filesystem I see in your fstab that might use vfat and get mounted is /dev/hdd1. You should not change that if you want Linux to run properly. In short: don't worry - nothing is wrong.

Very clarifying. For the moment I am trying to get rid of one error message per day. They just make me nervous ;-). I am using kernel 2.4.4-4GB on a system with DrDos on hda1. For the solutions I would like to opt for the third because I would not like to go back to kernel 2.2 and on recompiling I have not yet bitten out my teeth ;-). Here is my fstab which for clarity I have put into columns. In reality the columns can not so easily detected ;-). As far as I can see it the relevant parts are noauto. Could you tell me what I should change? Man fstab did not help ;-(.
