We have shortly  discovered that the content from the /etc diretory
comes of course from /compat/linux/etc. No question.
But the problem with other directory contents is still the same!!!!

For example a mounted cdrom /cdrom with strongly missing directories
(some appeared, most disappeared) and files or various user/system
directories. Tested for example with linux netscape (from FreeBSD-4.1.1
packages), acrobat4 . All programs show the same files/dirs or not.
We have done some debugging in the kernel source code (mainly
sys/i386/linux/linux_file.c) and have seen, that indeed the
getdents function only returns some of the entries of the specific
directory. But, from this already shrinked converted dir list (with
missing entries), additionaly
some files/dirs lost "on the way" to the user program and were never
shown by the user program. Very strange and serious problem.

Bye,

Malte & Stefan
