Avoiding a read-only filesystem on errorsAvoiding a read-only filesystem on errorsPosted Jun 18, 2009 21:01 UTC (Thu) by wagner17 (subscriber, #5580)Parent article: Avoiding a read-only filesystem on errors
Thanks for the article! It is good to hear that something is being done about this problem.
I "forced" my wife to switch to Linux as her main desktop but she still needs Windows XP so she dual-boots and uses a FAT drive to share data between the 2 OSs. Occasionally while using Linux, the FAT drive will become corrupted and switch to read-only and she is left wondering why she can't write to the FAT drive all of a sudden. It would be nice if a user space program could tell her about the issue instead of her screaming "Fix it!" at me.

Agreed, very cool! I'd love to see this bug closed one day.

Out of curiosity, what do Mac and Win do when they notice FS corruption?
