|
|
Hey all, I'm having a very odd problem and I was wondering if anyone else had anything similar happen to them.
I mount my vfat Windows partition as (a la fstab):
/dev/hda1 /mnt/win2k vfat noauto,noatime,users
and then I have another script which mounts it as my local user.
Problem is sometimes when I read/write/delete off the partition I get a complete system failure. Everything crashes and I'm forced to reboot. I posted about this earlier but I thought it had something to do with high cpu & Wine (It was crashing when I ran Jedi Knight II), thing is, JK2 was on the vfat partition, hence why it would crash. Anyway this doesn't just happen with JK2 - it also happens sometimes when I delete a file on the partition, or like I said above, read/write.
Any help would be greatly appreciated - I think this is the only flaw in my brand new Gentoo setup |

That's really odd, maybe try a vanilla-kernel. |

Turned out to be a hardware failure in that drive. Had to remove it completely. Doh. |
