There is a problem in CMU version 2.27 where if a file is larger than 900 megabytes, CMU will go into a endless loop until it runs out of memory. CMU will start to use spanning archives at 900M, it will get caught in a recursion loop if one file size is bigger than the span size.
If you need to fix this problem for your system, run the following commands as root: $ wget ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/users/jeffb/cmu/archive.patch $ patch -p0 < archive.patch Thanks to Bruce Bennett for reporting this and helping me trouble shoot it. This will be fixed in the next release of CMU. - Jeff Bilicki Software Engineer Sun Cobalt Server Appliances Sun Microsystems, Inc. _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
