Greetings,
I'm running the following configuration:
SUSE 10 (i586) Kernel: 2.6.13-15-default Hardware: Dell Precision Laptop
As root, if I run "find" (searching any path and/or name), I get the following error:
find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for /proc: this may be a bug in your filesystem driver.
I checked the knowledge base and found this entry:
It could simply be that the link count is read, then when the directory is read the number of files that would link has changed. Remember that entries in /proc come and go as processes come and go. I suspect that there is no problem. Just curious: why run find on /proc?
A good question because it never used to happen, so how has the file system or find changed? If you don't know approximately where a file is the most obvious way to look for it would be "find / -name whatever". So why does find search /proc ? -- Dave Cotton <dcotton@linuxautrement.com>
