[sleuthkit-users] File system detection issue with fsstat

[Jaime C. <jc...@id...>]

Hi all,

I run the fsstat command against an ext3 hard drive partition and I got 
the following error:

   fsstat: Cannot determine if EXT2/3 or FAT

I am wondering if any of you guys have seen this before. Is this an 
isolated case?... What are the probabilities that fsstat can not detect 
the supported file systems?

This is the output I get if I run fsstat -f fat against the same 
partition. Note: there is an error at the end...
