Hi, With next-2008-11-28, I was unable to mount an UDF-formatted DVD-RW: ~$ mount -oro -t udf /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom/ mount: Not a directory There was no problem with 2.6.28-rc6. I made a bisection: 33284bdf40f88160a154202510b27d983138c805 is first bad commit commit 33284bdf40f88160a154202510b27d983138c805 Author: Marcin Slusarz <marcin.slusarz@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Sun Nov 16 20:52:19 2008 +0100 udf: implement mode and dmode mounting options "dmode" allows overriding permissions of directories and "mode" allows overriding permissions of files.

Althought I was able to mount it with no special option on 2.6.28-rc6: ~$ sudo mount -oro -t udf /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom/ ~$ grep /media/cdrom /proc/mounts /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom udf ro,utf8 0 0 ~$ ls -la /media/cdrom/ total 46 drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 344 2007-12-24 18:09 . drwxr-xr-x 12 root root 4096 2008-12-01 00:22 .. drwxr-x--- 2 laurent laurent 7112 2008-11-30 20:14 flexbackup drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 2005-11-20 23:37 lost+found drwxr-x--- 10 laurent laurent 4548 2005-11-25 18:18 patches ~$ ls -la /media/cdrom/flexbackup/ total 4307946 drwxr-x--- 2 laurent laurent 7112 2008-11-30 20:14 . drwxrwxrwx 5 root root 344 2007-12-24 18:09 .. -rw-r----- 1 laurent laurent 44 2006-10-01 15:36 00-index-key ... ~~ laurent -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
