Hmmm I just discovered that my filesystem got fairly corrupted with 2.4.0-test7 proper. It has been up for 5 days nonstop and there was no problems. I have decided to shut it down only to discover that contest of /sbin directory is pretty much a soup. went back to 2.4.0-test7-pre2 and it seems be fine so far. I'm not sure what exactly caused it it might have something to do w/ me using vfat shortly before attemtping to shut it down. I believe I also got some warnings in dmesg like init_special_inode: bogus inode but not sure if they were related to the corruption itself. -- Adam http://www.eax.com The Supreme Headquarters of the 32 bit registers - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
