I have a (fairly important) file sent me on a Windows-formatted hard disk. When I 'mount_msdos /dev/wd3s1' and then try to 'cp /mnt/BigFile.avi /usr/tmp', I end up with a 0-byte file in /usr/tmp. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Note: if some knowledgable soul can give me pointers to likely culprits in the msdosfs code, I'd happily experiment. This is a very important file, and I need to access it very soon. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
