The problem about all this discussion is that it is talking about DOSFSCK as if it has to be rewritten an debugged all over. That is not tha case. It is a _functional_program_ , it's kernel has no more known bugs (for what I remember). So if this missing function is added, very little testing would be needed ;-)

Hi, dosdosfsck-2.8-fat32 does work for FAT32 for me.
IIRC it has bugs in the fat check/recover logic. Something about getting into a loop and something else about destrying Long Names.
The problem with DOSFSCK for DOS in version 2.10 is that Imre did port the 2.8 -> 2.10 update but did not complete the disk I/O drivers yet, which is why I think that 2.10 for DOS works worse than 2.8 for DOS but has more potential (because it will have WRITE support - be able to fix errors).
IIRC the problem is ONLY about one function to read/write sector beyond 2Gb. Eric, Do you have these functions that worked for 2.8?
LBACACHE is similar to SMARTDRV.SYS
I have been using it. It is really great. It really works :)
As you know, I am happy that LBACACHE is not called SMARTDRV. And I think it is appropriate that DOSFSCK is not called SCANDISK.
Agreed ;-)
