History

Pierre Schweitzer 6a224a38a1 [VFATLIB] Make Chkdsk handle volume opening locking failures. For instance, when repair is required, we can ask the caller whether we should continue or not in case locking failed. Also, introduced a hack for 1st stage where IopParseDevice() hack is in usage so that broken NTSTATUS is diverted to appropriate status. That way, usetup will properly continue even if locking failed (due to its callback stub!) CORE-14087		2017-12-09 21:12:09 +01:00

README

dosfstools consists of the programs mkfs.fat, fsck.fat and fatlabel to create,
check and label file systems of the FAT family.  The dosfstools are licensed
under the GNU GPL version 3 or later. See the file COPYING for details.


### Build Requirements

dosfstools recommends libudev. It is used in mkfs.fat to collect additional
information about the device to format in order to refuse potentially unsafe
operations without additional confirmation.


### Installing

dosfstools are built using an autoconf/automake system, so the standard method
applies:

  ./configure
  make
  make install

You need to have superuser privileges in order to install into the standard
system wide locations.

The ./configure script has an option --enable-compat-symlinks that will
configure the build to symlink older names of the tools to the current ones on
installation. These are dosfsck, fsck.msdos and fsck.vfat for fsck.fat, mkdosfs,
mkfs.msdos and mkfs.vfat for mkfs.fat and dosfslabel for fatlabel.


### Building from the VCS repository

If you are working directly from a git clone of the official dosfstools
repository, you will find that you can not run "./configure" straight away
because it, like other autogenerated files for the build system, is not included
in the repository.

First, autoconf and automake have to be installed.  Then you can run
"autoreconf -i" to generate all the required files.
