Hallo Peter Osterlund ,
i copied the linux source-tree to the cdrw with ext2-fs now. My experiences on 'cp -a /usr/src/linux/* /mnt/cdwriter':
After a short time my system 'freezes' nearly completely for about 15
This probably happens because all of your memory is filled up with dirty buffers waiting to be written to the CDRW. This means that all processes
hmm, i have 512MB Ram and a swapspace of 256MB. Shouldn't that be enough for copying about 170MB?
Another problem (or is that normal using ext2?): mounting the cdrw (after writing to it) in my cdrom instead of the burner, i couldn't see any files.
I would have thought it would work, but I don't have a CDROM drive to test this. Does the same thing work if you use the udf filesystem? Did the mount command succeed for the ext2 case or did you get some error message?
The mount command gave no error, also a df -H says the amount auf used and free! space on /dev/cdrom. But a ls -l /mnt/cdrom gives only an empty dir. With udf there are no problems to have access through the cdrom.
Is the 2.5 kernel worth a try? I'm running no system with special
What about the corrupted files? Is that managed in this version?
I don't know what's causing the corruption, so I don't know if it is fixed. What did the corruption look like in your case? In my case the
How could i determine the art of corruption? In the moment i'd done only the diff. Could you give me some scenarious, what to test and how? Because i'm going out for a week, i can do further testing not before 16. june. Thanks for your feedback Greetings-- Email:KOALASOFT@GMX.DE
