bug: can't mount -o loop or -t nfs in 2.4.4, 2.4.4-ac2

2001-05-02 Thread Joseph Cheek
2.4.4-pre7 worked fine. situation: mounting a remote nfs share or a loopback local filesystems doesn't work. it doesn't crash the system, the userspace process just hangs on the mount() call. all of these hang: # mount -o loop /my/ext2/image /mnt/ext2 # mount -o loop /my/fat16/image

KMALLOC_MAXSIZE undeclared in drivers/media/video/buz.c

2.4.3-pre4. i also see a reference to KMALLOC_MAXSIZE in drivers/net/hamradio/6pack.c this kernel won't compile, is KMALLOC_MAXSIZE set somewhere? i can't find it. is it deprecated? gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/RedmondLinux/BUILD/linux-2.4.3/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
