Package: grml2usb
Version: 0.16.7
Severity: grave
The check_for_fat() function always fails, no matter what:
,----
| # file -s /dev/sdc2
| /dev/sdc2: DOS/MBR boot sector, code offset 0x3c+2, OEM-ID "mkfs.fat",
sectors/cluster 64, reserved sectors 64, root entries 1024, Media descriptor
0xf8, sectors/FAT 256, sectors/track 32, heads 64, hidden sectors 27265024,
sectors 3512319 (volumes > 32 MB), serial number 0x6666adbb, unlabeled, FAT (16
bit)
| # sudo grml2usb grml96-full_2018.12.iso /dev/sdc2
| Executing grml2usb version 0.16.7
| Execution failed: Partition /dev/sdc2 does not contain a FAT16 filesystem.
(Use --fat16 or run mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc2)
| # grml2usb --fat16 grml96-full_2018.12.iso /dev/sdc2
| Executing grml2usb version 0.16.7
| Are you sure you want to format the specified partition with fat16? y/N y
| Note: you can skip this question using the option --force
| Formating partition with fat16 filesystem
| mkfs.fat 4.1 (2017-01-24)
| Execution failed: Partition /dev/sdc2 does not contain a FAT16 filesystem.
(Use --fat16 or run mkfs.vfat /dev/sdc2)
`----
I am not really a Python expert, but AFAICS the problem is that by
default Subprocess.open() opens file objects in binary mode, so the
"filesystem" variable is an array of bytes, and comparing it to a string
always yields false.
