Interesting. $ /devel/linux/works/fatfs/fatfstools/dosfstools-2.10/dosfsck/dosfsck -a bug10/crash.img dosfsck 2.10, 22 Sep 2003, FAT32, LFN /0006 Directory does not have any cluster ("." and ".."). Dropping it. Reclaimed 3 unused clusters (6144 bytes) in 3 chains. Performing changes. crash.img: 8 files, 3/8167 clusters My fixed dosfsck found the above corruption in bug10/crash.img (bug7 has same corruption). And probably you can see root directory via 0006 directory, I guess your testing tree didn't have my patches yet (seems old behavior). BTW, what mount options did you use?
