Package: dosfstools Version: 2.11-2.1 Severity: important
fsck.vfat gives the option to correct a problem, or not, by entering 1 or 2. Entering 1 doesn't cause it to correct the problem, however. I was forced to use fsck.vfat -y, which could cause problems if one only wanted to repair some problems and not others.
