fixing supermount for > 2.4.19pre4

Hi Joerg,

your patch for supermount does not work. Now it's even not possible to list the content via ls -lsa /mnt ... Mount hangs, no access is made, nothing.

Tested with your jp12 patchset and with my patchset wolk.

Kind regards

Is supermount compiled into kernel or as a module? What drive, what media did you mount, what command did you issue?

I tested it with supermount compiled into the kernel and

# mount -t supermount -o dev=/dev/hdb none /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l /mnt/cdrom

and

# cd /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l

# cd
# umount /mnt/cdrom

and it works fine for me, patched against 2.4.19-pre8-jp12, and /dev/hdb is an ISO 9660 CDROM in my DVD drive. No "stale NFS handles", clean mount and unmount, and with "debug" option I can see it works as a charme.

ftpfs is fixed in the same way but I did not reboot yet.

Hi Joerg,

err, sorry for no details in my first mail :( ... I have headache and thinking is not good at all ;(

Its a module, an IDE 50x CD-ROM Drive, Company: LION and i used a ISO9660 CD. I used the following command:

mount -t supermount -o dev=/dev/cdrom none /mnt

/dev/cdrom is a symlink to /dev/scd0, i use ide-scsi for CD-ROM access.

hmm, strange :) ... i'm going to test it a little bit more ... Another CD-Drive, other CD's ...

Kind regards,
Marc
