[comp.os.msdos.programmer] 12 bit FAT

sld@mpccl.ksu.edu (Steve Davis) (02/09/91)

Hi... I'm messing around with my computer, just to see what all I can
do.  At the moment, I'm trying to write a simple program to display the
file allocation table, and list which clusters point to which other 
clusters.  Since my hard drive is dead, I have no way to test out a
16 bit FAT, so I'm stuck with my 360k floppy with a 12 bit FAT. Anyway,
I'm wondering how I calculate which FAT entry corresponds to which sector
number.  Anyone have some source code or simply instructions on how to
do this?

   Thanks
