>Description:
Certain functionality appears to be broken with the msdos filesystem. With a usb pen drive (either uhci or ehci) I can read and write files but if I attempt to unarchive /etc it will cause my system to lock up without a trace or going to debug.
This could be an issue with USB. I do not have another type of device with an msdos filesystem to verify.
>How-To-Repeat:
/etc/malloc.conf is a symlink to "aj"
mount an msdos filesystem to /mnt
cd /
tar cf - etc | (cd /mnt; tar xvf -)
system locks up on me every time.
