Hello.
I'm trying to use a Compaq Dual Netteligent card in a Apple Macintosh
Performa 6360. Basically, my purpose is to use this system as a more
powerful firewall than that the one I have today.
To make things shorter, the TLAN driver on its atual incarnation does
not work in PowerPC machines.
I hate to ask this, however here goes. I am doing some remote upgrading
and some other really funky stuff to some boxes I keep up.
Part of these are total system upgrades and I need to move data out of
the way while still having a working box. I decided that cramfs may be
the way to do this.

Well,
Hardcoding of block size to 512 bytes for disk devices is what currently
either the block device driver or the sd driver is doing. Because, if
I run dd to the same device using the corresponding block device (sde)
it runs fine. So, I feel that either the sg driver or the block device

I think you need to set bpt=8 .
It is possible to set some drives to block sizes other than 512 bytes, and
hardcoding 512 is not a good idea, especially in code that might last a
while. In a few years we might have 4096-byte blocks to let the drives use
more powerful error correcting codes.

Hi List,
I am trying to use sg_dd which goes through the scsi generic driver.
This is how use it.

The question that I have is, does the scsi generic driver have a knowledge
about what kind of device it is dealing with

Hello!
It appears that a system with tmpfs mounted with the default (!!!)
parameters can be used by ordinary users to make the system
non-functional.
Let me tell you the whole story. I don't know what is wrong here and what
is not, but the end result is a security hole.
The kernel version is 2.
does the attached oops makes sense or it is just messed up?
AFAICT the ksymoops is using right System.map, yet the stack

for that matter is "defensive" programming the rule in kernel?

here are 15 probable security holes where user input (e.g. data from

sorry I'm late, could you tell me where this driver/patch is?
also, my problem with USB mice on slow machines is that it takes
up too much CPU, and you get a jumpy mouse if your box is doing a
lot of work (like a heavy nfs server, say). Would this driver do
the same to that box?
