did not address that (0 - boot->sectors_per_clusters) < 0 because "u8" was
chosen for type of boot->sectors_per_clusters because 0x80 needs to be
positive in order to support 64K clusters. Use "s8" cast in order to make
sure that (0 - (s8) boot->sectors_per_clusters) > 0.

I slightly prefer the earlier patch:

but it appears that the NTFS3 maintainer is MIA again. :(


Hello

I've sent patches on 12.09, so I'm not MIA.
I plan to look at patches next week, there are quite a lot of them.
