Re: cfs reports Input/Output error
Hi Sergio, I cannot provide any help, sorry, but i can give you my own experiences. I used to be in exactly the same situation some time ago (I also posted to this list, check the archives for details). In the end I gave up, as far as i know cfs simply does not work on amd64. I now use an encrypted partition (using the loop device), which, in the end, does the same thing, and i do not see any disadvantages compared to cfs.

Re: cfs reports Input/Output error
Hi, I'm still in the same situation. Can a few of you install cfs and try to create an encrypted directory ( $ cmkdir somedir ) and then mount it ( $ cfssh somedir) and check whether you can ls on the mounted directory (cffsh will put you on the right mounted dir). I can't live without the cryptographic file system... Please let me know if you manage to get rid of the error I mentioned on my previous postings. Cheers, Sergio.

cfs reports Input/Output error
Hi, I'm using cfs on an amd64 (sid). The Cryptographic File System (cfs) deb package used to work fine. Haven't used it for a while on amd64 (only on i386) and now... it doesn't work. I can manage to "mount" the encrypted directory by doing: $ cfssh directory The problem is when I try to see what's inside the directory: $ ls ls: reading directory .: Input/output error $ echo * * My guess is that this is a problem with the way things are mounted, not ls. I've tried to do an strace on this, but didn't get anything. Any ideas on how to fix this. Cheers, Sergio. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
