Hi Eric, In the generic/397 test script, you placed: $XFS_IO_PROG -f $SCRATCH_MNT/edir/newfile |& _filter_scratch $XFS_IO_PROG -f $SCRATCH_MNT/edir/0123456789abcdef |& _filter_scratch but neither of those lines actually has a command on it, and when I run it, I'm seeing xfs_io hang just waiting endlessly for someone to type commands on stdin. Would it be better to do: echo >$SCRATCH_MNT/edir/newfile |& _filter_scratch echo >$SCRATCH_MNT/edir/0123456789abcdef |& _filter_scratch instead? David?
