(it complained about not getting with lseek64 to that position...) (I don't have the correct error message ready, but I can check, if its needed) After I changed the libxfs to only use the BLKGETSIZE64 ioctl, it works fine now. (Eric Sandeen pointed me to this) So he said, perhaps there is a bug in the SCSI (lasi?) driver. bye Stefan P.S.: I'm using 2.4.19-pa9 with a self made diff from vanilla 2.4.19 against XFS CVS.
