Further tests reveal the following: The fault occurs if I run find as root, in root. If I'm not root, or not in root, it will work. If I'm root, in root, and I use the -mount option, it will not fail. It almost appears that find is building a list, and with all the mounted volumes (which he sees as root in root), he overflows his space. Is that likely? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
