Hi, I'm currently having some problems with the Union-FS in -stable. I've mounted a CD-ROM (the ports distfiles, to be specific) on /cdrom and the ports-Collection via NFS from my 2nd home box. If I do a mount_union /usr/ports/distfiles /cdrom/distfiles I simply get something along the lines "/usr/ports/distfiles read-only filesystem", although this is definitley _not_ true... The other way round, i.e. mount_union /cdrom/distfiles /usr/ports/distfiles works, but is "sub-optimal" becaus this way I can't augment the distfiles-collection on the CD with the current archives ;( I'm using NetBSD for the rest of my "herd" (mostly pmaxes, a SPARCstation and some more) and there I can mount a local filesystem over a read-only mounted NFS filesystem (i.e. /usr/obj over /usr/src). Both machines are running 2.2.7-stable with a kernel cvsupped last weekend (i.e. 09/25 - 28 timeframe). Do I have to do special "voodoo rituals" when mounting the CD-ROM or is there something broken in the Union-FS ? MTIA, Marc PS: Another thing I noted yesterday was a 'panic' while doing a 'find -name work' over the NFS-mounted /usr/ports... I'll try to reproduce it to see if it was just some 'bogons' or a real bug ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
