Cluster is changed to EOF. +.IP * 4 +File's cluster chain contains a loop. The loop is broken. +.IP * 4 +Bad clusters (read errors). The clusters are marked bad and they are removed +from files owning them. This check is optional. +.IP * 4 +Directories with a large number of bad entries (probably corrupt). The +directory can be deleted. +.IP * 4 +Files . and .. are non\-directories. They can be deleted or renamed. +.IP * 4 +Directories . and .. in root directory. They are deleted. +.IP * 4 +Bad filenames. They can be renamed. +.IP * 4 +Duplicate directory entries. They can be deleted or renamed. +.IP * 4 +Directories with non\-zero size field. Size is set to zero. +.IP * 4 +Directory . does not point to parent directory. The start pointer is +adjusted. +.IP * 4 +Directory .. does not point to parent of parent directory. The start pointer +is adjusted. +.IP * 4 +Start cluster number of a file is invalid. The file is truncated. +.IP * 4 +File contains bad or free clusters. The file is truncated. +.IP * 4 +File's cluster chain is longer than indicated by the size fields. The file +is truncated. +.IP * 4 +Two or more files share the same cluster(s). All but one of the files are +truncated. If the file being truncated is a directory file that has already +been read, the filesystem check is restarted after truncation. +.IP * 4 +File's cluster chain is shorter than indicated by the size fields. The file +is truncated. +.IP * 4 +Clusters are marked as used but are not owned by a file. They are marked as +free. +.PP +Additionally, the following problems are detected, but not repaired: +.IP * 4 +Invalid parameters in boot sector. +.IP * 4 +Absence of . and .. entries in non\-root directories +.PP +When \fBfsc.fat\fP checks a filesystem, it accumulates all changes in memory +and performs them only after all checks are complete. This can be disabled +with the \fB\-w\fP option. + +.SH OPTIONS +.IP \fB\-a\fP 4 +Automatically repair the filesystem. No user intervention is +necessary. Whenever there is more than one method to solve a problem, the +least destructive approach is used. +.IP \fB\-A\fP 4 +Use Atari variation of the MS\-DOS filesystem. This is default if \fBfsc.fat\fP +is run on an Atari, then this option turns off Atari format. There are some +minor differences in Atari format: Some boot sector fields are interpreted +slightly different, and the special FAT entries for end\-of\-file and bad +cluster can be different. Under MS\-DOS 0xfff8 is used for EOF and Atari +employs 0xffff by default, but both systems recognize all values from +0xfff8...0xffff as end\-of\-file. MS\-DOS uses only 0xfff7 for bad clusters, +where on Atari values 0xfff0...0xfff7 are for this purpose (but the standard +value is still 0xfff7). +.IP \fB\-b\fP 4 +Make read\-only boot sector check. +.IP \fB\-d\fP 4 +Delete the specified file. If more that one file with that name exists, the +first one is deleted. +.IP \fB\-f\fP 4 +Salvage unused cluster chains to files. By default, unused clusters are +added to the free disk space except in auto mode (\fB\-a\fP). +.IP \fB\-l\fP 4 +List path names of files being processed. +.IP \fB\-n\fP 4 +No\-operation mode: non\-interactively check for errors, but don't write +anything to the filesystem. +.IP \fB\-r\fP 4 +Interactively repair the filesystem. The user is asked for advice whenever +there is more than one approach to fix an inconsistency. +.IP \fB\-t\fP 4 +Mark unreadable clusters as bad. +.IP \fB\-u\fP 4 +Try to undelete the specified file. \fBfsc.fat\fP tries to allocate a chain of +contiguous unallocated clusters beginning with the start cluster of the +undeleted file. +.IP \fB\-v\fP 4 +Verbose mode. Generates slightly more output. +.IP \fB\-V\fP 4 +Perform a verification pass. The filesystem check is repeated after the +first run. The second pass should never report any fixable errors. It may +take considerably longer than the first pass, because the first pass may +have generated long list of modifications that have to be scanned for each +disk read. +.IP \fB\-w\fP 4 +Write changes to disk immediately. +.IP \fB\-y\fP 4 +Same as \fB\-a\fP (automatically repair filesystem) for compatibility with other +fsck tools. +.PP +\fBNote:\fP If \fB\-a\fP and \fB\-r\fP are absent, the filesystem is only checked, but +not repaired. + +.SH "EXIT STATUS" +.IP 0 4 +No recoverable errors have been detected. +.IP 1 4 +Recoverable errors have been detected or \fBfsc.fat\fP has discovered an +internal inconsistency. +.IP 2 4 +Usage error. \fBfsc.fat\fP did not access the filesystem. + +.SH FILES +.IP "fsck0000.rec, fsck0001.rec, ..." 4 +When recovering from a corrupted filesystem, \fBfsc.fat\fP dumps recovered data +into files named 'fsckNNNN.rec' in the top level directory of the +filesystem. + +.SH BUGS +Does not create . and .. files where necessary. Does not remove entirely +empty directories. Should give more diagnostic messages. Undeleting files +should use a more sophisticated algorithm. + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +\fBfatlabel\fP(8) +.br +\fBmkfs.fat\fP(8) + +.SH HOMEPAGE +More information about \fBfsck.fat\fP and \fBdosfstools\fP can be found at +<\fIhttp://daniel\-baumann.ch/software/dosfstools/\fP>. + +.SH AUTHORS +\fBdosfstools\fP were written by Werner Almesberger +<\fIwerner.almesberger@lrc.di.epfl.ch\fP>, Roman Hodek +<\fIRoman.Hodek@informatik.uni\-erlangen.de\fP>, and others.
