From 3672b638ec1d5b1020ea27986060b830f09c96c1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anton Altaparmakov Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2006 09:55:07 +0000 Subject: NTFS: - Cope with attribute list attribute having invalid flags. Windows copes with this and even chkdsk does not detect or fix this so we have to cope with it, too. Thanks to Pawel Kot for reporting the problem. - Miscellaneous updates to layout.h.
