Package: busybox
Version: 0.51pre

Typing:

# mount -tmsdos /dev/fd0u1680 mnt

...results in a core dump...

# mount -t msdos /dev/fd0u1680 mnt

...works...

# mount -tmsdos -o loop /dev/fd0u1680 mnt

...results in a message:

mount: Mounting /dev/fd0u1680 on mnt failed: No such device

# mount -t msdos -o loop /dev/fd0u1680 mnt

...works (!)

The last two obviously at least partially resulted from operator error
- I was investigating the core dump first mentioned; however, I would
not expect either of these latter two examples to succeed, and would
expect an appropriate error message.
