| |
I just had the strangest thing happen, with 2.2.2-pre5; I had applied Makoto Kato's second BFS filesystem patch, and wanted to try it out. I rebooted with the new kernel and mounted my Be partition with 'mount -t bfs'. The partition was mounted, I could list directories and files, I could cat text files to the console, and I successfully copied a couple of files to a Linux partition. Then I realized that I had never insmod-ed the bfs module! How can this have worked? The odd thing is that I'm unable to use the bfs module to copy files, even with this second version. I'm just curious; anyone have any ideas?
