With this patch, I still cannot mount hfs CDs (the LinuxPPC 2000 CD), and after a while of copying and gcc'ing on a hfs ZIP, it still freezes the system. It seems, however, to survive somewhat longer than before, and it freezes more gracefully, i.e. it puts me in a state (like vi insert mode without Esc key) where I can type, even change consoles, but it doesn't react. MagicSysRQ is still working, which wasn't the case before. -- Martin ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
