I can not make my linux 5.1 mount my internal zip
drive, containing a msdos disk. I have kernal support
for the msdos and vfat


I have this entry in /etc/fstab
/dev/hdc4 /mnt/zip msdos defaults 0 0

whenever I try: mount /dev/hdc4 /mnt/zip
I get
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on
/dev/hdc4,
       or too many mounted file systems
       (aren't you trying to mount an extended
partition,
       instead of some logical partition inside?)

I seem to have everything set up for it, I see it
looking at the atapi zip on boot at hdc.
