This probably means that the cluster size needs to be increased.
This only happens if you try to increase the size of the file system.

Me neither.  Could you please send the first 16k of your file system?
(This is mainly to determine the cluster size.)  You can do this with:

        dd if=/dev/hda9 of=fat-start.img bs=16k count=1

I found an unrelated bug while looking... can someone else fix it please?
In command_line_get_sector(), the default case does not set the range.
This causes segfaults.

Thanks,
