The File System Check Report entries are as follows:
•
Allocated but unused clusters shows the number of reserved sectors not
allocated to files.
The router may in some cases be able to recover from this error when
mounting the volume. The Technician Interface displays a message indicating
success or failure after a recovery attempt. Enter the
unmount a: and
mount a: commands to determine whether DOS fixed the error. If the file
system comes up without a problem, the error is fixed. If an error is detected
again, use the check disk (
chkdsk) command with the fix (/F) switch on a PC
to free the allocated but unused sectors.

allocated to files. The directory is corrupt.

delete those files.
