This problem still appears in 2.4.2-ac6. I have a 64k vfat filesystem image file. I use the following commands to reproduce this problem. dd if=file.bin of=/dev/ram0 bs=1024 mount /dev/ram0 /mnt -t vfat I can do a ls -l /mnt and the filesystem looks correct. If I do a file * in the /mnt directory, I will get a segmentation fault. This worked just fine on a 2.2.17 kernel. Also if I do the following commands dd if=file.bin of=/dev/ram1 bs=1024 mount -o loop /dev/ram1 /test -t vfat it works, but the ls -l of /test is gargabe mixed with correct file names. Accessing a filename will also cause a segmentation fault. This also worked just fine on a 2.2.17 kernel. Any idea what is wrong with the ramdisk driver rd.c?
