Re: help on xfs test results

Hi Dave, Eric and all,

still thanks.

About generic/256 failing in my system,

in the xfstests README there is:

- create fsgqa test user ("sudo useradd fsgqa")

this creates the user, but in /etc/passwd comes "/bin/sh" as shell,
and in this system is it "dash". Redirection to /dev/null as required
from this test then fails. Setting to "/bin/bash" test passes.


About xfs/136,

ack, thanks.
