[nslu2-linux] Maximum FAT32 partition?

 

   I've recently upgraded a WD MyBook 500Gb to a MyBook 1Tb drive.  They're both formatted FAT32, with a single partition.  I'm running unslung 6.10 on a 1Gb USB thumb drive in the Disk 2 slot, and so I shut down my working configuration (with the 500Gb drive), unplugged the old drive from the Disk 1 slot, and plugged the 1Tb drive in.  Everything seems to start up fine, and when I navigate to the web configuration page, I see that my NSLU2 is unslung.  However, the UI indicates the 1Tb drive is unformatted.  When I SSH into the Slug, no device appears at /share/hdd/data.

   Is there a limit to the FAT32 partition size that unslung will support?  What am I doing wrong that is causing the new 1Tb drive not to appear?  It's been a while since I dropped a new HD into my configuration.

   Thanks in advance.
