Root directory has 576 entries in 36 sectors (as reported by Partition Magic), DOS slice uses 4K clusters. >Description: At boot (mount time for disk), I receive the following message: Mar 23 22:06:49 fantasy-factory /kernel: mountmsdosfs(): Warning: root directory is not a multiple of the clustersize in length This may be correct, by the numbers above the disk uses 4.5 clusters for the root direcrory. However if neither Windows 95 nor Partition Magic care, FreeBSD should not report if it is not a problem (or refuse to mount the drive if it is a problem.) >How-To-Repeat: Reboot with specified configration. >Fix: Unknown. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
