Thank you for your reply.

I read from your message a high level of frustration. I understand that frustration related to the loss of your data. I'm sorry for your inconvenience.

I'm trying to gather more information regarding your report to be able to fix the problem you describe.

The challenge we have in attempting to fix the problem you are experiencing is that we need to be able to reproduce it. We are not able to do that with the information you've provided.

Can you please attach the output of:
 dosfsck -v -n <partition>

And also give some information about the files, dosfsck wants to fix (e.g. length, filename, whether these files are indeed broken)?

Can you also test, if the version in Feisty will result in the same output? (In case you don't have Feisty installed, please tell us which Ubuntu version/arch you are using, and we can make a .deb for testing purposes, at least for amd64/i386).

Finally, there is no need to send me separate emails, I am subscribed to this bug as are several other volunteers.
