I've been trying to loop mount reiser4 which resides on a file on an
exported NFS partition, it mounts fine but when copying a lot of small
files inside a complex directory tree everything just hangs all of a
sudden, in fact the whole share hangs. Any operation on the share
(including bash completion) will hang bash (or in that case any
application) completely.
Doing the same will work with any other FS. Parameters for reiser4 -
create=ccreg40,compress=gzip1,compressMode=force,fibration=lexic_fibre,formatting=tails

Thanks,

Could you please upgrade to the latest one (.38)?
I remember there were some problems with loop
devices over reiser4 files that have been fixed.
Thanks,
Edward.
Client is 2.6.37-zen (Gentoo)

"formatting=tails" makes sense only for default file plugin (creg40).
Thanks,
Edward.

It looks like the Zen kernel is a complete piece of rubble, you're
right. It shows many other reiser4 related problems with systemrescuecd
doesn't. There're a lot of non-reiser4 related issues too.
Speaking of which I was wondering about switching directly to 2.6.39, is
a patch for 39 on the horizon?
