I'll provide. > It should be reproducable on other hardware as well if this is a real bug, so perhaps you can printout more information on the /compat/linux directory which is giving you problems, are the directories all there that should 'support' the problematic missing ``.`` ? etc. I am not a FS expert, so hence the reasoning to poke the fs mailinglist since there are people with much more clue then me over there. If they agree this is a real problem and should be fixed, I will surely reopen the ticket and include usefull information in it so that we can keep track of the PR etc. For the moment this still does not seem like a PR to me but perhaps a local value or something that messed up which might just not be a bug but a local problem (that does not mean that is not a problem for you ofcourse). > > I've write to fs@freebsd.org already with no any feedback for three > days: > People are busy so it would be unfair to have them reply within a certain timeframe right? You could just follow-up on it and reply 'did someone have the time to look at this already and/or what else can I do to provide more valuable information?' Someone will reply eventually and an occassional friendly reminder can be greatly appreciated :) Cheers remko -- /"\ Best regards, | remko@FreeBSD.org \ / Remko Lodder | remko@EFnet X http://www.evilcoder.org/ | / \ ASCII Ribbon Campaign | Against HTML Mail and News
