Results of DBLSPACE /CHKDSK (95536)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system 6.0
This article was previously published under Q95536 SUMMARY
The DBLSPACE /CHKDSK command evaluates errors and then sorts them into
three categories: lost clusters, cross-linked files, and other.
The "other" category indicates one or more of the following problems:
- There is a damaged extended BIOS parameter block (BPB). (This is
the BPB specific to the compressed volume file [CVF].)
- There is a damaged beginning or ending signature in the CVF.
- An entry in the MD-FAT (Microsoft DoubleSpace - file allocation
table) is corrupt (unreadable).
- The MD-FAT makes a reference to the MS-DOS FAT that is not valid.
- The sector heap offset is out of range; for example, the sector
heap is larger than the CVF or beyond the size of the logical
compressed drive.
NOTE: The DBLSPACE /CHKDSK command will repair, or attempt to repair,
the "other" error.
