If the BPB is either v4.1 or v7 long, then its volume label field should be written. Note: This site https://jdebp.uk/FGA/bios-parameter-block.html suggests that it is perfectly valid to have a v7 long BPB with a FAT12 or FAT16 filesystem, although more usually it's used for FAT32. However I can't see any confirmation of this elsewhere, haven't seen an example of this in the wild, and have no means of generating a test article. More importantly since we are writing to the filesystem, it's important to not have any false positives or we could cause corruption. So for now this combination, should it exist, will not be updated. See the discussion here https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp/pull/202. Part of a fix for [https://github.com/FDOS/label/issues/17] |

fd kernel
FreeDOS kernel - current 0xFD version is 2.43 (2043)
The FreeDOS kernel implements the core MS/PC-DOS (R) compatible functions. It is derived from Pat Villani's DOS-C kernel and released under the GPL v2. Please see http://www.freedos.org/ for more details about the FreeDOS (TM) Project. This was originally a branch based on 2042 SVN 0xFD kernel; the full svn history has since been added to git (see other branches) and current development of release kernels are available here. Please fork and submit a Pull Request!
Compiled kernels ready to use (just copy kernel.sys over an existing install) are available at http://www.fdos.org/kernel/testing/git/ - also available are the source archive and fdpkg compatible packages. *** TODO update links/upload archives
This version of the kernel is intended only for 8086+ or 80386+ IBM compatible computers in continuation of the goals of the FreeDOS Project. Please see http://www.fdos.org/kernel for my 0xDC kernel that is work on merging back in some of the original portability aspects and other supported features at the cost of some compatibility with older hardware/software.
