I don't know, really :) It is a 'hidden' file which Junjiro uses in AUFS to store mappings for persistent inode numbers. It's very powerful feature of AUFS. I'm not sure if this is the cause of your reported problem, I didn't even find a way how to see (through /proc or /sys) the real and actual size of the xino file. Maybe the problem is somewhere else. I am no expert at all, just AUFS user. Lets wait for Junjiro Okajima to explain that :) Tomas M ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Central: Instant, anywhere, Remote PC access and management.
