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. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages dosfstools depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
