[Parted-maintainers] Bug#272734: I suspect that one or both boot records were corrupted

[Kingsley G. Morse Jr.]

For what it's worth, I suspect that either the
master boot record (MBR) or partition's boot
sector, or both, were corrupted.

It was a fat16 file system and 

    scandisk c: /checkonly

reported

    "ScanDisk cannot read from the last cluster on
    drive C. This cluster is either damaged, or
    your system is not configured properly. Drive
    C may need to have Logical Block Addressing
    (LBA) enabled to work properly, or its disk
    partition may be incorrectly marked as a
    non-LBA partition. Data loss can occur if your
    LBA setting or disk partition type for this
    drive is misconfigured."


Thanks,
Kingsley
