Hello misc, I'm migrating my data from an ext3 partition (formatted under Debian 6.0, sparc64) to my new i386 OBSD system. When copying I found out that some files weren't copied correctly and returned the error: "read error: Invalid argument".
The files are usable when mounting the disk under i386 Debian, so it's not an cpu-architectural problem. Other programs trying to operate on these files via ext2fs also fail with the same notion, (e.g. md5). And extracting these files from a tarball also result in the same error. The ls command does succeed and shows the correct information (file-size, access-time, etc). When moving these files over via nfs the problem doesn't occur and the files are saved correctly on my ffs partition. How can I trace this problem, so I can fill in a decent bug-report? Sincerely, Martijn van Duren
