Hello. I think I've found a problem in AUFS, at least in the latest CVS version. Here is a short script to reproduce it:
#!/bin/bash mkdir empty mkdir union mknod empty/console c 5 1 mount -t aufs -o br:empty=rw aufs union ls -l union # in my case, the console device is entirely wrong now cp -a union/console union/console-copy # in all cases, copy is broken ls -l union I tested it on XFS filesystem. On my computer, it simply refuses to show 'console' device correctly, minor/major numbers are broken. It can't access the device. It can't copy it. But on tmpfs it works correctly, so I'm confused :) Tomas M slax.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
