While I don't know the the exact details of new vs. old DOS FAT/FS, I'm
using here, amongst others, a disk with a 514 MB DOS partition. Works well
here (after applying the fix below).

BTW, I fixed a bug regarding the handling of full root directories on sunday,
and since then I couldn't reproduce any failures even by filling the disk
to its limits. I'd like any reports of further failures observed on the dos fs.
