I'm assuming this is on both the vfat and ext3 disks? All the
filenames' cases are correct?

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?
