So, bsBytesPerSec is accessed as bytes at offsets 11 and 12, which is
just what you wanted, isn't it?

here's a part of code :
typedef struct
{
uint8_t bsjmpBoot[3];
char bsOEMName[8];
uint16_t bsBytesPerSec;
...
}BootSector;
and a buffer FAT16_buffer[512] where I put data frome SD card in.
for example , if I declare a Bootsector struct at same address of
FAT16_Buffer, and read the first sector of my SDcard, I coul read
directly the field of my struct.
bsjmpBoot is 3 bytes and is OK
BsOEMName is 8 bytes and OK
bsByteBytesPerSec is 2 bytes is not OK because bsOEMBoot+bsOEMName =
11 bytes : 1 bytes is 'filled' between bsOEMName and bsBytesPerSec.
So data becomes buggy.
with the #pramga pack (x) , Can I 'byte align' each field of my struct
?

I tried to set the attibute on all structs/unions but at compiling
time , gcc told : "`__packed__' attribute ignored" for each
attribute ...

In a similar situation I use:
#pragma pack (2)
...
Structures, etc
#pragma pack ()
and this work (align at word boundaries)

If you have a union of two (or more) structures, those structures must
also have a packed attribute.

Hello,
I'm trying a fat16 library that use an union for storing the
bootsector data, and it seems the compiler doesn't handle correctly
the width of types in memory.
So I searched some help on crossworks (gcc) compiler and found that I
have to use this attribute with my concerned unions :
__attribute__ ((__packed__))
But if the compiler doesn't shout at me when compiling , it seems it
has no effect : my union is badly aligned.
