This is the funny bit: I mounted the fat partition on /dev/nftla1 happily, but
couldn't see any files on it. Trying to write to it gave a "No Virtual Unit
Chains available" message, and reformatting it this mkfs reported a success but
left the fat partition there. Is the fact that it sees 0 sectors significant or
is this normal?
