We'll see soon enough, managed to disable enough checks on the debian-10 image to actually make it install packages. > Does powerpc with a 64-bit ppc64 kernel work? > I'd assume it will show the same issue.

I do wonder if it's some O_DIRECT thing, does the example work if you just remove O_DIRECT from the file open? -- Jens Axboe
