Hello. I have a 2tb Seagate ST32000542AS (4k sectors) with ext2fs that can't seem to read symlinks from a linux-created ext2fs. =20 I was rsync migrating files from a linux machine to this freebsd=2C and boo= ted an Ubuntu livecd to partition the disk and make the filesystem. I partitio= ned it into a 1.5tb partition and a 500 gig partition. I am getting read errors on some symlinks on an ext2 filesystem=2C but they read fine when I boot an Ubuntu live cd. Smartctl shows no errors for the = disk. The filesystem also checks fine with fsck.ext2fs on both freebsd and Ubuntu= live cd. I rebuilt the kernel earlier this week.

What other commands could I run to provide more information on this? Other symlinks on this filesystem also generate the g_vfs_done errors. Thanks. =
