Hi, I am using unionfs 2.1.10 (for 2.6.23.8). The unionfs root has two layers, a read-only nfs filesystem and a tmpfs. When I doing some test i got this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mkdir /var/lib/misc/testdir mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/lib/misc/testdir': Read-only file system [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mkdir /var/lib/misc/testdir mkdir: cannot create directory `/var/lib/misc/testdir': Read-only file system [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# touch /var/lib/misc/testdir [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# rm /var/lib/misc/testdir [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# mkdir /var/lib/misc/testdir && echo OK OK [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# It looks like a problem within unionfs COW algoritm. If the parent directory not exists in the COW layer the mkdir failed. When the parent directory (/var/lib/misc) exists in the COW layer (after touching a file on it) the subdirectory can created. It is a real bug, or I miss something? -- thx, Lénárd
