================
>Description:

INSTALL.TXT (and INSTALL.HTM) say:
    FIPS does NOT currently work with FAT32 or VFAT style partitions as
    used by newer versions of Windows 95. 

A recent poster to -doc claims that FIPS has worked with such partitions
for years.  I'm quite sure I've seen versions on a couple of Linux CDs
work on them.  And I found a recent report (just an off-hand comment) of
it working on FreeBSD in some FreeBSD forum just now.
================
>How-To-Repeat:
I don't know; no M$ Windows here.
================
>Fix:

In both files, change "FAT32 or VFAT" to "NTFS" and remove " 95".

They are in "/usr/src/release/text/i386/".

 This apparently didn't get MFC'd.
 
 (It's fixed in 5.0's INSTALL.TXT, but not in 4.7's.)
