Sorry - I sent this a reply to a wrong email. Correct PR is kern/77234. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=77234 on 01/02/2008 12:00 Andriy Gapon said the following: > on 22/12/2006 20:24 Pav Lucistnik said the following: >> Synopsis: [udf] [patch] udf filesystem: stat-ting files could randomly fail >> >> State-Changed-From-To: open->closed >> State-Changed-By: pav >> State-Changed-When: Fri Dec 22 18:24:14 UTC 2006 >> State-Changed-Why: >> Fixed in 6.1 and up >> >> http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=84983 > > I found a bug in the patch.
