| 2 | |
| 3 | It seems I didn't get the bug completely fixed in 0.3a. Some |
| 4 | borderline cases would still allocate too many sectors for the FAT. |
| 5 | Again, nothing to worry about, just a nitpick -- this one would only |
| 6 | in certain cases add one sector per FAT. |

| 8 | Announcing the release of mkdosfs version 0.3a (Yggdrasil) |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Fixed a bug which would cause too many sectors to be reserved for the |
| 11 | FAT (filesystem will still work fine, but have slightly less space |
| 12 | available). |

| 14 | Announcing the release of mkdosfs version 0.3 (Yggdrasil) |
| 15 | |
| 16 | This version correctly handles even very large filesystems, and |
| 17 | properly supports the modern (3.3+) DOS bootsector format, including a |
| 18 | message printed on boot attempts. |

| 26 | Announcing the release of mkdosfs version 0.2 |
| 27 | |
| 28 | |
| 29 | I've just uploaded mkdosfs to sunsite.unc.edu. It works in a similar way |
| 30 | to Remy Card's mke2fs, but creates an MS-DOS file system. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | The filename is mkdosfs-0.2.tar.gz. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | This second release should fix a small bug that could lead to FAT sizes that |
| 35 | Linux's dosfs would accept but MS-DOS wouldn't. |
| 36 | |
| 37 | The archive contains a manual page, binary and source versions. |
