Title:
losetup 32bit offset
So, I think the issue I've been having *may* be related.
I store a bunch of junk on an LVM and I needed to expand that a bit. So
I created a virtual disk using dd and losetup to expand my LVM.
Everything seems fine, but after some case that I'm having a hard time
identifying, I cease to be able
Ohh yeah, and I'm on AMD64 8.10

your logs seem to indicate that there is a problem with samba (keywords
cifs, smbd). how do you use samba in respect to the lvm device?
i also don't really understand why you need to use a virtual disk to
expand a LVM (but i probably won't be able to help you anyway..).
what commands did you
There are other keywords, like one of those backtraces comes out of an
instance of rm.
My LVM was full and I had another drive that was already doing something
else. I used dd to make a file that I'm using an extra storage space on
the LVM.
losetup is what connects that file to the file system
