This filesystem is absolutely correct, yet the fsck.vfat tries to fix
it. If I let fsck.vfat fix the filesystem, all files residing after
certain treshold in the file system are truncated and shown as lost
chunks. It seams that something is wrong with maximum sector
calculation.
This is with dosfstools of version 2.11-1. This really is a grave bug
- it destroyed my Windows filesystem *twice* before I understud what
was going on. :P

Checking we can access the last sector of the filesystem
There are differences between boot sector and its backup.
Differences: (offset:original/backup)
