Hi all,

I recently set up unionfs, and it works great aside from two rather
serious problems I'm having (could be related).

I have a unionfs that mounts three rw branches, /.data0, /.data1 and
/.data2 as /data.

The first is that I have a directory, /.data2/archives/roms/gp32, which
does not show up on unionfs at all. I can create another directory with
the same name, which ends up on /.data0. Unmounting/remounting or
rebooting seems to have no effect, nor does creating another gp32
directory and removing it again.

The second (which I just noticed earlier tonight) is that it seems to
freak on long directory names, but only under certain directories.
The dirs get created, and can be accessed, but do not show up on a
directory listing.

Here's an example of where it's broken:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd /data/leech/pan/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ mkdir foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ touch foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo/bar
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ ls -l foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo
total 0
-rw-r--r--  1 david david 0 2005-10-06 23:47 bar
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ ls -l foo*
ls: foo*: No such file or directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/leech/pan$ rm -rf foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo

And here's an example of it working, under another dir:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cd /data/test/test/
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/test/test$ mkdir foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/test/test$ touch foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo/bar
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/test/test$ ls -l foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo/
total 0
-rw-r--r--  1 david david 0 2005-10-06 23:49 bar
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/test/test$ ls -l
total 4
drwxr-xr-x  2 david david 4096 2005-10-06 23:49 foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/data/test/test$ rm -rf foofoofoofoofoofoofoofoo/

I'm running unionfs 1.0.14.

Any help on this would be much appreciated - I love having all my data
discs available under one mount point, but I don't like the idea of my
data mysteriously hiding somewhere.


With regards,
