Hello,
Thanks for you quick answer.

ls shows the files.
I'm assuming this is on both the vfat and ext3 disks? All the
filenames' cases are correct?
git status shows:
fatal: Not a git repository

IB
The error message unfortunately really means "git couldn't find
_everything_ needed to be a repository" without saying what precisely
it had problems finding. Educated guess: Have a look in the .git
directory on each disk. Is there a file called 'HEAD' or has its case
been changed?
