hi, Harald Dunkel reported this bug on the latest debian package.
is this a bug? cheers dom ----- Forwarded message from Harald Dunkel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2004 17:27:06 +0200 From: Harald Dunkel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bug#266648: core dump on ENXIO If there is no hardware behind /dev/sdd, then "mkreiserfs /dev/sdd" dies with SIGABRT and a core dump file instead of setting a valid exit value to indicate a problem. # mkreiserfs /dev/sdd mkreiserfs 3.6.18 (2003 www.namesys.com) A pair of credits: Yury Umanets (aka Umka) developed libreiser4, userspace plugins, and all userspace tools (reiser4progs) except of fsck. Chris Mason wrote the journaling code for V3, which was enormously more useful to users than just waiting until we could create a wandering log filesystem as Hans would have unwisely done without him. Jeff Mahoney optimized the bitmap scanning code for V3, and performed the big endian cleanups. count_blocks: open failed (No such device or address) Aborted (core dumped) ----- End forwarded message ----- -----[ Domenico Andreoli, aka cavok --[ http://people.debian.org/~cavok/gpgkey.asc ---[ 3A0F 2F80 F79C 678A 8936 4FEE 0677 9033 A20E BC50
