I am doing some rescue backup systems here using tools like syslinux and mtools to format a normal msdos disk (for el-torito). I figured out that after creating and formating of these disks that it is impossible to mount them with 'msdos' or 'vfat'. Even recompiling mtools with current changes show the same issues. Please someone check up and fix the issues (maybe reverting the changes). PS: I am not subscribed to this list so in case you need to CC: me.
