While debugging ticket #14. Although I have yet to recreate the bug, I started debugging why the fs name does not appear for certain cfdisked drives.
fat_bootsector_read() returns all zeros to the buffer. The _device_seek() is seeking to the proper location, and there is actually data in that location, which I have confirmed via 'dd' (with appropriate bootsector signature) Is this some oddity with qemu and virtual disks? Fdisk and cfdisk read the partition's boot sector fine. It seeks to sector 63, sucks in 512b of bootsector data. And read returns sucessfully (512b read). The data it copies into diobuf is 0x0 for 512 bytes. I do not have a spare drive lying around, (although I can try to pick one up this week) to compare against. Sounds to me if qemu is doing something funky. But that's just some speculation right now. Although, parted does read other partitions fine.
