Hi all. I've tracked down a bug in the patch "niftify mount(8) output for glusterfs mounts", or 445b57bf, that is causing glusterfs to fail to start. glusterfs is able to start up without error in the revision 8123c9. I believe it's because of this line: 2009-04-09 13:53:59 E [fuse-bridge.c:2911:init] glusterfs-fuse: fuse_lowlevel_new() failed with error Inappropriate ioctl for device on mount point /mnt/glusterfs If it helps, we're using fuse 2.6.1. Is it incompatible with this patch?
