[ECOS] FAT filesystem

[Iram]

Hi Savin (or whoever knows an answer)

I have created an image of a floppy disk and added a
master boot record at the top which is effectively a
copy of the boot sector of floppy. I use this image as
the FAT filesystenm loaded in my device driver.
The fileio.1.c application creates files and
directories fine. But when I create a floppy disk
image with a file already saved on floppy, that file
doesnt appear in the list of directory entries. 

Any idea why that might be?

Regards

Iram
