I have found a very strange behavior on using the external USB-HDD and automounting it under BETA7. In general it works fine, but yesterday late evening I was moving a lot of relatively small files beween 2 partitions on this drive. Some time later I looked at the first terminal and noted there a few pages of messages like: Oct 15 01:29:53 kvip55 kernel: fsync: giving up on dirty: 0xc258c630: tag devfs, type VCHR, usecount 6, writecount 0, refcount 5, flags (VV_OBJBUF), lock type devfs: EXCL (count 1) by thread 0xc2732af0 (pid 1012) Oct 15 01:29:53 kvip55 kernel: dev da0s2a Oct 15 01:29:53 kvip55 amd[352]: /amd/d2: unmount: Resource temporarily unavailable /amd/d2 is a ufs partition mounted from da0s2a In the same time the copying itself went smooth. BTW, is it enough to just dismount partition to make it flush all buffers before switching the HDD off ? And is it also holds for the msdos_fs, as this one can't be mounted in sync mode ? -- Best regards, Alexander.
