I suppose if it's just a repair thing then using _nocheck probably makes sense (or technically might make sense regardless since we're not formatting the scratch device directly). I don't mind creating a file and using loop on that, but would like to make sure I understand if/why it's necessary. > Others look good to me. > Thanks for the feedback.
