Subject:  vfat32 Free Cluster Count Update

Hi!

Doesn't the Linux vfat driver update the FAT32's free cluster summary count?

Zweiblum:~# dosfsck /dev/sda11
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
/dev/sda11: 2451 files, 28218/1918827 clusters

Zweiblum:~# mount /dev/sda11 /mnt/win_daten/

Zweiblum:~# cp /etc/motd /mnt/win_daten/

Zweiblum:~# umount /mnt/win_daten/

Zweiblum:~# dosfsck /dev/sda11
dosfsck 2.11, 12 Mar 2005, FAT32, LFN
Free cluster summary wrong (1890609 vs. really 1890608)
1) Correct
2) Don't correct
? ^C

Zweiblum:~# uname -a
Linux Zweiblum 2.6.24-1-686 #1 SMP Mon Feb 11 14:37:45 UTC 2008 i686
GNU/Linux

Greetings,
