But neither does fat_fill_super() on failure. My only suspicion was on fat_msg() but that sb usage seems fine and the goto out_fail seems fine as iput() also doesn't process null inodes and unload_nls() is fine. The return value is also set to -EIO correctly so we don't return NULL actually. I jus tdon't see anything odd on _fat_msg() either. Hrm.. Luis
