Hi,
I've been playing around with the Hurd on my Linux box
and sharing filesystems between the two of them. I have
one partition which I use as a repository for lots of GNU
and other free software I'm compiling under the Hurd.
I'm running into a problem, however, when I mount (set translator for)
one of the filesystems.
Under Linux, df shows these partitions as:
Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc1 2015984 739996 1173580 39% /hurd
/dev/hdc2 5039592 1605844 3177744 34% /hurd/src
/dev/hdb1 958977 703747 205690 78% /mnt/hdd1
I only seem to have problems with /hurd/src (hd2s2) and it seems to
me that the only difference is size. I was wondering if there are
any known limitations on filesystem sizes to confirm my suspicions.
The 'ext2fs' translator dies with 'Computer bought the farm' when
files with 'large' inode numbers are 'stat'ed such as the following:
625551 drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Feb 17 16:16 redhat/
306261 drwxr-xr-x 2 jona users 4096 Feb 7 01:56 rpm/
but seems to behave appropriately for files with 'small' inode numbers:
67 -rw-r--r-- 1 jona users 744169 Jan 31 23:49
readline-4.1.tar.gz
If there are any known limitations, can anyone give me a clue as to
where to look (mach/storeio/ext2fs) so I can help remedy them?
My system was compiled (by me from scratch) from:
glibc-2.2.3
hurd-cvs-2002-01-29
gnumach-cvs-2002-01-29
gcc-2.95.3
binutils-2.9.1
