Hello,

There is no rt patch from 2.6.34 until 3.0. It said that the reason is that there is a serious file system bug which will cause file corruption.
And the bug is fixed by Thomas until the version 2.6.38??

It will be very grateful if some detail information about this bug can be given.

Best Regards,

Joseph

The bug was only visible with the changes RT did to that code. Mainline papered over it somehow, but I forgot the details by now.
