Before the 2.4.21 kernels, copying a 700mb with about 6,000 .jpg's
on it to HDD would result in a nothing but 'no such file' errors
about half way thru the CD, either on the CL or with a file manager.
Copying 1/2 at a time worked fine. This was the only issue I've had
with supermount in a long time.
With every 2.4.21 kernel since, this situation is no longer a
problem and access to removable media is very much faster. Almost
instantaneous on the CL, just a few seconds in a file manager like
Konqueror.
'Course this is with 9.1, which probly makes a difference. I'd
think tho that a current 2.4.21 cooker kernel should not be a problem
on a 9.0 system. (kernel-2.4.21.0.pre4.8mdk-1-1mdk).
