[Cooker] Re: [cooker] PATCH: 2.4.21-0.pre3.1mdk: supermount - fix ESTALE on media change wth busy files

2003-01-29 Thread Andrey Borzenkov

 The real test for supermount will be when you can
 successfully install a
 copy protected game under WineX; like Baldur's Gate 2,
 for instance. That's going to be my acid test. 

this almost sounds like you are threatening :)

Copy protection does not have anything to do with supermount. But sure, we lack real 
life examples.

OTOH the first mounting should work without problem. The problems possibly start first 
time you change CD ...

waiting for your experience

Insert Mandrake CD, and:

$ find /mnt/cdrom -name '*.rpm' -exec rpm -K {} \;

BTW, I ran this with Danny's 2.4.19-16.7mdk on a Mandrake workstation
DVD with no problems, where it would give up quite early with 2.4.19-16mdk

We could write a small script that prompts for more CDs, and do it for
at least a Mandrake 3 CD set ...

kernel version?

0.pre3.1mdk has the same supermount. Version that was intended for 9.0
update has the same bug as 9.0.

  OTOH the first mounting should work without problem. The problems

with this bug you get problem of first mount as well.

ha...seems that I make better updates than Juan :-P

Not that I understand much of supermount anyways.

Thanks for investing your time btw Andrey. I remember you claiming you could 
not participate on cooker.


As small not about the konq problem: I played with it a bit on 9.0 and there 
at least it seems to use fam. Wouldn't it be possible to modify fam _not_ to 
monitor devices mounted by supermount? (like it is not possible for nfs ?)
