Re: [PATCHSET] 2.4.19-pre8-jp12

[Pozsar Balazs <pozsy@sch.bme.hu>]

I tried it. First I had a lot of compile problems (everything as module),
I had to disable at least 5 drivers (sorry I don't know exactly which were
them).
After compiling, depmod -a says:

unresolved symbols in
/drivers/char/drm/sis.o
/drivers/hotplug/pcihpacpi.o
/net/tux/tux.o

So even tux is unusable :(.


But the worst problem for is supermount:
# mount -t supermount -o dev=/dev/cdrom none /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l /mnt/cdrom
ls: .: Stale NFS handle                (~or something similar)
[...]                                  (and it lists the file)

But:
# cd /mnt/cdrom
# ls -l
ls: .: Stale NFS handle
#                                      (and it doesn't even list the files)
