the following commands reproduce a problem I had with rename on
a VFAT partition with the latest kernel 2.1.131. Please check it.
[~] # mount | grep '/e'
/dev/hdb5 on /e type vfat (rw,noexec,uid=0,gid=102,umask=002,quiet)
[~] # cd /e
[/e] # mkdir test
[/e] # cd test
[/e/test] # echo xy > f0
[/e/test] # ls -li
total 4
7092 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root dos 3 Dez 6 22:57 f0
[/e/test] # mv f0 f1
[/e/test] # ls -li
total 4
7093 -rw-rw-r-- 1 root dos 3 Dez 6 22:57 f1
[/e/test] # mv f1 f2
[/e/test] # ls -li
total 4
7093 -rw-rw-r-- 0 root dos 3 Dez 6 22:57 f2
root@p5 [/e/test] # cd
root@p5 [~] # umount /e
VFS: Busy inodes after unmount. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day...
It leaves me with lost clusters in Windows, but this may be caused by the
experiments I carried out to find the problem.
BTW, remounting the partition helped in this case to save the file...
Thank you,
Ulf
