For instance, 350MB of a 400MB file are copied very fast, then I get some timeout and device descriptor read messages. The writing never finishes and the fs is corrupted. First I thought the drive was damaged, but under Windows it works fine, so it must be an issue related to how copying under linux works. regards bjo -- xmpp bjo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx bjo.nord-west.org | nord-west.org | freifunk-ol.de
