During the "release.8" phase, I tumbled upon a bug either in the vn code or in the kernel handling of out-of-inode situation in a device. The doSH.sh script tries many times to do a pseudo-floppy and with the default numbers (the 50000 in release/Makefile) it fails with a out-of-inode message and the second or third time it happens, the machine is locked *tight*. Frozen. The only way out is the BRS. It also fills my syslog with lots of: Jan 14 23:22:49 keltia last message repeated 268 times Jan 14 23:22:50 keltia /kernel.old: vn0: invalid primary partition table: no magic Jan 14 23:22:50 keltia /kernel.old: vn0: invalid primary partition table: no magic Jan 14 23:22:50 keltia /kernel.old: uid 0 on /mnt: out of inodes Jan 14 23:22:53 keltia last message repeated 268 times Jan 14 23:22:54 keltia /kernel.old: vn0: invalid primary partition table: no magic ...it then crashed...
