Maybe there is something wrong in mkdir.c -> mkdir_p function. Anyway I've asked around and some people said that using assert on "mkdir_p" is kind of a bad idea, but I'm not a developer so I wouldn't know. -- Robert Milasan L3 Support Engineer SUSE rmilasan@xxxxxxxx -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-modules" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
