Hello :-)

In FreeBSD 12, the "-o large" option has been removed from mount_msdosfs, so
mounting FAT drives doesn't work.
You can check the documentation here:
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mount_msdosfs&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+12.0-RELEASE+and+Ports&arch=default&format=html
VS:
https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mount_msdosfs&apropos=0&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+11.3-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html

The problem has been fixed in recent versions of automount, please update it
:-)


On another note:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/sysutils/automount/files/pkg-install.in?revision=378537&view=markup
should have "sbin" instead of "bin" on line 8.

Best Regards,
Olivier
