Applications that depend on + exact FAT file format (e. g. embedded systems) may be broken in + two ways: + * The introduction of the alignment may create smaller images + than before, with a different positions of important image + elements. It can break existing software that expect images in + doststools <= 4.1 style. + To work around these problems, use "-a" command line argument. + * The new image may contain a different geometry values. Geometry + sensitive applications expecting doststools <= 4.1 style images + can fails to accept different geometry values. + There is no direct work around for this problem. But you can + take the old image, use "file -s $IMAGE", check its + "sectors/track" and "heads", and use them in the newly + introduced "-g" command line argument. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Other differences: ------------------
