So if you have some older kernels, you might want to see if you can replicate the problem. I've since found that just doing a copy via "(tar -cf - -C / usr/include ) | tar -C /mnt -xf -)" is sufficient to see the problem. Just add a "sync; sleep 5" before the umount. :-) - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
