This is fairly easy to reproduce: $ cp /bin/sh /tmp $ echo echo hello there | /tmp/sh hello there $ cp /bin/sh /tmp cp: /tmp/sh: Text file busy I noticed this after applying the patches John Dyson committed today but that's apparently not where the problem comes from, as this works with yesterday's kernel too... I can't say if it works with a kernel older than last 20 December. -- Pierre Beyssac pb@fasterix.frmug.org pb@fasterix.freenix.org {Free,Net,Open}BSD, Linux : il y a moins bien, mais c'est plus cher Free domains: http://www.eu.org/ or mail dns-manager@EU.org
