Known problem.  

Go  

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/people/axboe 

and take the latest loop-? patch from there. Let Jens Axboe know if it works
or if you still have problems. Particularry, if you can reliably reproduce  
the problem you referred.

I hear the patch should get merged to 2.4.1ac soon.

And, your address [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not work. I'm kinda
puzzled about how you expect people to reply you. With smoke signals?

2.4.1-ac16 - Loopback device seems broken

2001-02-16 Thread Andr=E9

I don't know if this is broken in 2.4.1-ac17 and
2.4.2-pre4, but, what happens when mounting a filesystem
using the loopback device is that the process 'dies' in some
way and there's no way I can kill it.
This is what I did:
mount /test-ext2-image.img /mnt/testimage -o loop,rw -t ext2
And after that there's no way I can get the process killed...
