well, I just tried to re-do the image with -v flag. Here is what I got. I'll calculate these number later.. Total translation table size: 0 Total rockridge attributes bytes: 323570 Total directory bytes: 919552 Path table size(bytes): 4276 Max brk space used 1c87a4 305073 extents written (595 Mb) The interesting thing is, the original CD is the one that's bigger. The mounting through loop device problem..well, I am at 2.4.3, which I doubt will still have that kind of funny bug.. chen -- ~ __ Freedom of Choice 'v' / / __ __ __ __ __ __ __ // \\ / /__ / / / \/ / / /_/ / \ \/ / /( )\ /_____/ /_/ /_/\__/ /_____/ /_/\_\ ^`~'^ _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
