Also ignore duplicate names where one of + them is a volume label. + +version 2.6 +=========== + + - mkdosfs: Added correct heads definition for 2.88M floppies if not + created via loopback. + - dosfsck: If boot sector and its backup are different (FAT32), offer + to write the backup to sector 0. (tnx to Pavel Roskin for this) + - For 64 bit alpha, struct bootsector in dosfsck.h must be defined + with __attribute__((packed)). + - mkdosfs now actually accepts -R option. (tnx to David Kerrawn) + - Fixed typo in dosfsck boot.c (recognition of boot signature in FSINFO) + - Various compilation fixes for 2.4 kernel headers and for ia64. + +version 2.5 +=========== + + - The llseek() implementation for alpha didn't really work; fixed it. + +version 2.4 +=========== + + - Fix compiling problem on alpha (made a silly typo...) + +version 2.3 +=========== + + - mkdosfs: Fixed usage message (printed only "bad address"). + - both: made man pages and usage statements more consistent. + - both: fix llseek function for alpha. + - dosfsck: fix reading of unaligned fields in boot sector for alpha. + - dosfsck: fixed renaming of files (extension wasn't really written). + +version 2.2 +=========== + + - Added dosfsck/COPYING, putting dosfsck officially under GPL (Werner + and I agree that it should be GPL). + - mkdosfs: Allow creation of a 16 bit FAT on filesystems that are too + small for it if the user explicitly selected FAT16 (but a warning + is printed). Formerly, you got the misleading error message "make + the fs a bit smaller". + - dosfsck: new option -y as synonym for -y; for compability with + other fs checkers, which also accept this option. + - dosfsck: Now prints messages similar to e2fsck: at start version + and feature list; at end number of files (and directories) and + number of used/total clusters. This makes the printouts of *fsck at + boot time nicer. + - dosfsck: -a (auto repair) now turns on -f (salvage files), too. -a + should act as non-destructive as possible, so lost clusters should + be assigned to files. Otherwise the data in them might be + overwritten later. + - dosfsck: Don't drop a directory with lots of bad entries in + auto-repair mode for the same reason as above. + - dosfsck: avoid deleting the whole FAT32 root dir if something is + wrong with it (bad start cluster or the like). + - general: also create symlinks {mkfs,fsck}.vfat.8 to the respective + real man pages. + +version 2.1 +=========== + + - Fix some forgotten loff_t's for filesystems > 4GB. (Thanks to + <ki@kretz.co.at>). + - Fix typo in mkdosfs manpage. + - Removed inclusion of <linux/loop.h> from mkdosfs.c; it's unnecessary and + caused problems in some environments. + - Fix condition when to expect . and .. entries in a directory. (Was + wrong for non-FAT32 if first entry in root dir was a directory also.) + - Also create mkfs.vfat and fsck.vfat symlinks, so that also + filesystems listed with type "vfat" in /etc/fstab can be + automatically checked. + +version 2.0 +=========== + + - merge of mkdosfs and dosfstools in one package + - new maintainer: Roman Hodek <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> + - FAT32 support in both mkdosfs and dosfsck + - VFAT (long filename) support in dosfsck + - Support for Atari variant of MS-DOS filesystem in both tools + - Working support for big-endian systems in both tools + - Better support for loop devices in mkdosfs: usual floppy sizes are + detected and media byte etc. set accordingly; if loop fs has no + standard floppy size, use hd params + (mainly by Giuliano Procida <gpp10@cus.cam.ac.uk>) + - Removed lots of gcc warnings + - Fixed some minor calculation bugs in mkdosfs. + +For change logs previous to 2.0, see the CHANGES files in the subdirectories. |
