I don't remember if I have encountered this particular problem; but I have had to patch boot sectors after using mkdosfs (due to missing boot code) or incompatible BPBs when repairing or constructing image files. Sorry for my delayed response. Because of the way sourceforge handles digests, I didn't receive the digest containing your post until more than two weeks after you sent it. -- Eddie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Developer Access Program for Intel Xeon Phi Processors Access to Intel Xeon Phi processor-based developer platforms.
