I'm just kind of amazed at what I read here at times.
It is no secret that DOS is no longer a mainstream operating system. As a
result, support for it on physical hardware is minimal, if it is supported
at all. Modern machines are just not intended to be used with DOS as the
primary, "bare
FAT is finicky but FAT is not the issue here.
As long as the machine has sufficient time to complete its last writes and
you don't have any programs running using the disk, it should always be
safe to shut down - DOS doesn't buffer or delay writes unless you have some
sort of disk caching program
sort of proxy that meets the spirit of the requirement.
Anyway, I think the OP has been scared off so this is an academic
discussion now. ;-0

Obviously something that does real-time operations should not be burdened

Most of these are open source projects. And in a lot of cases people are
