Hi,

I tried it on both 2.2-ALPHA and 2.2-GAMMA. The effects are mostly as
described by you Shawn, but I've got one more problem. At system startup
it says "checking quotas:" and hangs after a while. When I press <Ctrl-C>
the startup continues, the remaining services start and quotas work as you
describe (say "none", but limit space). It only happens when I enable quota
for the /usr filesystem (689999 kB, 451731 kB, 71% used).  With the
/ (31775, 21463, 73%) and /var (29727, 2099, 8%) enabled and the /usr quotas
disabled the system starts without problems. Have you seen such problem?
What can it be caused by?

TIA

Andrzej
