NAME

dmsdosfsck - dmsdos filesystem checker

SYNOPSIS

dmsdosfsck [-aflrtvVw] [-d path -d ...] [-u path -u ...] filename

DESCRIPTION

dmsdosfsck checks the CVF located in filename for errors and optionally tries to repair errors. It is command-line compatible with dosfsck(8).

-a automatically repair the file system
-d path (*) drop that file
-f (*) salvage unused chains to files
-l list path names
-r interactively repair the file system
-t (*) test for bad clusters
-u path (*) try to undelete that (non-directory) file
-v verbose mode
-V (*) perform a verification pass
-w (*) write changes to disk immediately
(*) not yet implemented but option accepted for dosfsck compatibility

BUGS

dmsdosfsck is not yet complete. Be extremely careful with repairs.

It is strongly recommended to let only the native CVF management tools that came with your CVF software package do any repairs. Use dmsdosfsck only to check (which is a read-only operation).
