From 01fac041cb32408a4fc5f4617381da6ec609a8dc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Rini Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2013 06:55:40 +0000 Subject: cmd_fat.c: Note in fatread help about alignment requirements When using the partial read feature of fatwrite the buffer we read into can become unaligned not just due to initial location but the size of our partial reads as well. Make this clear in the help text.
