No. It's because UTCDateTime is defined within a `#pragma options align=mac68k' section in its C header file. This means it doesn't have a default structure packing. IIRC, "mac68k" packing means a packing of one, so your managed UTCDateTime struct must be declared with: [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 1)] > My questions are : > 1.

See above. > 3. Is it a mono issue that I have to either do fancy tricks and give up on > auto-marshaling of the array in the middle, or set the Entire FSVolumeInfo > struct layout to Explicit ? Check and adjust the packing of all other structs you're planning to use. It should fly then.
