Hi,

I am getting following error in my target hardware when I trying to
write, usb mass storage device having vfat file system. But at the
same time I am to copy from the usb mass storage device. I have
configured as iso8859-1 iocharset in the menuconfig. I am using Linux
Kernel v2.6.30. Can you please give some clues how to fix this?

FAT: Filesystem panic (dev sda1)
    fat_get_cluster: invalid cluster chain (i_pos 0)
    File system has been set read-only

looks like filesystem corrupt state to me. have you run fsck.vfat or
fsck.msdos on it?

I think utility dosfsck from dosfstools package may be helpful in your case.
Seems that you have errors on your FAT file system.

Thanks all for the support. After formatting pen drive it works.

Please note:
And sorry for post in kernel mailing list. ( I thought I am doing
something wrong in kernel menuconfig, as the pen drive works in host).

You welcome :) ANyway, that message could be  a sign that something is
wrong in your pen drive's hardware. It could also the usb extension
cable too. Just be careful.

Sometimes it's hard to decide whether something is kernel related or
not. In your case, it might have something to do with kernel. So, in
case of doubt, just send mail to this list. If nobody answers, quite
likely everybody thinks it's not in kernel issue domain :)
