That can take while so it should have a progress bar.  Dosfsck (aka
fsck.vfat) is also pretty crappy.  You may need to run it up to 3 times
to fix corrupted VFAT completely which makes showing progress a bit more
annoying.  With a worst-case full VFAT having tens of GB worth of small
files, it can also take up to something like 1GB of RAM (there are some
patches for this, I think one of mine (reported by another person) is
still unapplied in Ubuntu Bugzilla).
