Package: dosfstools
Version: 2.11-1
Followup-For: Bug #266254

I'm still having problems with dosfsck.  I just installed
dosfstools-2.11-1, though I'm mostly using testing otherwise. 

I have a bad disk, /dev/hdc1, which I copied, using dd_rescue to
/mnt/home-old/hdc1. 

First, running dosfsck on a standard file which is a copy of the file
system: 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dosfsck -V /mnt/home-old/hdc1
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
fstat /mnt/home-old/hdc1:Value too large for defined data type

Now, running it on the block device on the original disk, I get:


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo dosfsck -V /dev/hdc1
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
Seek to -300450304:Invalid argument

Both the copy and the original partition can be mounted, though there
are problem with the device /dev/hdc1.

The error message is different from the original bug report, but I am
still having problems running dosfsck on large file systems.
