Hi Imre, nice explanation, thanks :-).

You mean for a worst case FAT32 filesystem with 2^28 (256M)
clusters where the FAT on disk is also 1 GB per copy...
> Cluster movable map: 32 MB (fat size * 1 bit)
consult the FAT refered
table or the DIR refered table.

A lean ad ;-). But you can just as well build data structures
For this it is very sad that FreeDOS does not use the LEAN file system
(http://freedos-32.sourceforge.net/doc/lean.html) instead. That has back
pointers for pretty much everything and would as a consequence be much faster.
Voting for a file system change ;-D
