Subject: Floppy disk very slow
Date: Sun, 14 Nov 2004 10:38:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200411141038.09349.bernhard.bialas@t-online.de> (raw)

Hello,
I have discovered the following strange behavior of the floppy disk:
-accessing from hard disk to floppy (via f: a: command) takes approx. 10 sec
- then, the " dir" command takes from 1-5 minutes to list the directory 
content
Also no chance to start any program from the disk.
Under Linux the behavior is normal: an "ls" give in approx 1 sec the content 
of the floppy.

My question: have some other people made a simillar experience?
The test are done with dosemu 1.2.2 and 1.3.1
Linux System is SuSE 9.1 (kernel 2.6.5 (with some patches)),on a AMD Duron 
system.
Maybe has this something to do with the fact that the floppy is mounted via 
subfs ?

Any ideas?

Best regards
Bernhard Bialas
