If I type 'cd /', then I end up in /, nothing strange here.
If I type 'cd ///' then I end up in /, nothing strange here.
However, if I type 'cd //' then I end up in /, but everything
(such as 'pwd') thinks I'm in the directory //.
I did some more fooling around and realized I could also
cd to directories //tmp, //home/fenris, etc. But more than two
leading slashes are collapsed. Non-leading slashes are always
properly collapsed.
Could this be a special case that is handled wrong in the new
fs code I've heard so much about?
The root partition is ext2, btw.
