Subject: mtools ate my DOS partition!
Date: 1 Sep 1992 03:02:26 GMT

Has anyone else had this happen? My FAT table was totally scrambled after
mwriting a file (I have been doing this regularly, this is the first glitch).
I have to re-load half the DOS side. Worse is, it could happen again. My
mtools file in /etc reads:

A /dev/fd0H1440 12 80 2 18 # A: 5 1/4
A /dev/fd0 12 40 2 15
B /dev/fd1h1200 12 80 2 15 # B: 3 1/2
B /dev/fd1 12 80 2 18
C /dev/hda1 16 0 0 0
D /dev/hda6 16 0 0 0

I think this is correct. I never got any complaints from mtools anyway.
I have 0.96b and gcc-2.2.2.
