Package: dosfstools
Version: 3.0.27-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I can't create a FAT32 partition with this command dosfstools: mkfs.vfat -F32.

For example, you can try this :

$dd if=/dev/zero of=OSMC_TGT.img bs=1M count=256
256+0 enregistrements lus
256+0 enregistrements écrits
268435456 octets (268 MB) copiés, 1,05195 s, 255 MB/s
$parted -s OSMC_TGT.img mklabel msdos
$parted -s OSMC_TGT.img mkpart primary fat32 1M 256M
$kpartx -a OSMC_TGT.img
mkfs.fat 3.0.27 (2014-11-12)
unable to get drive geometry, using default 255/63
$mount /dev/mapper/loop0p1 /mnt
$touch /mnt/file.txt
$umount /mnt
$sync
$kpartx -d OSMC_TGT.img
loop deleted : /dev/loop0

Before, I don't have this message : unable to get drive geometry, using default
255/63

Can you help me please ?

Phil
