I was just wondering... last night I mounted a MS-DOS floppy, which had some bad tracks on it. Because of this, I was no longer able to access, not even umount the floppy. But, what was worse, was that both my two harddisk-partitions which were mounted as msdosfs became just as unavaible as the floppy. Why does the entire filesystem go down with one minor problem such as the floppy? And how can I avoid this. (except from using bad floppies, that is :) ) Niklas Saers To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
