Very few filesystems compiled in Dapper kernel

[Phillip Susi]

All the filesystem drivers are compiled as modules, including fat and 
reiserfs.  They don't show up in /proc/filesystems because you don't 
have the modules loaded because you don't have any such filesystems 
mounted.  Try to mount one and the module will auto load.
