We iterate though the entire type_array table (lines 977-996) without reaching found_type, so we "Zap the device filesystem information and try again" --- but we don't find it when we try again, either. Infinite loop. Let me know if I can provide any further information to help you debug this. --scott -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages e2fsprogs depends on: ii e2fslibs 1.40-1 ext2 filesystem libraries ii libblkid1 1.40-1 block device id library ii libc6 2.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.40-1 common error description library ii libss2 1.40-1 command-line interface parsing lib ii libuuid1 1.40-1 universally unique id library e2fsprogs recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
