Re: bin/1212: The AmigaDOS file system has no fsck-equivalent



        You could still fsck a filesystem for which you do not have r/w
        support. We really should have at least a readonly fsck for all
        filesystems to avoid mounting a damaged filesystem and potentially
        panics.
