					capacity.

					Most of the time, the MsDOS file system that sit
					on this device is totally unaligned. It use logically
					512 bytes sector size, with logical sector starting
					in the middle of a hardware block. The bad news is
					that a hardware sector may hold data own by two
					different files. This means that the hardware sector
					must be read, patch and written almost all the time.

					Needless to say that it kills write performance
					on all OS.

					Internally the linux msdos fs is using 512 bytes
					logical sector. When accessing such a device, we
					allocate dummy buffer cache blocks, that we stuff
					with the information of a real one (1k large).

					This strategy is used to hide this difference to
					the core of the msdos fs. The slowdown is not
					hidden though!
