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

10Fixed a bug which would cause too many sectors to be reserved for the
11FAT (filesystem will still work fine, but have slightly less space
12available).

16This version correctly handles even very large filesystems, and
17properly supports the modern (3.3+) DOS bootsector format, including a
18message printed on boot attempts.

29I've just uploaded mkdosfs to sunsite.unc.edu. It works in a similar way
Matt Mower18794c82015-11-11 16:22:45 -060030to Remy Card's mke2fs, but creates an MS-DOS filesystem.

32The filename is mkdosfs-0.2.tar.gz.
33
34This second release should fix a small bug that could lead to FAT sizes that
35Linux's dosfs would accept but MS-DOS wouldn't.
36
37The archive contains a manual page, binary and source versions.
