I don't get it, do you unmount the FS before unplugging USB? It looks like you simply pulled the cable. FAT is an extremely primitive filesystem that remains coherent when there isn't any data in cache or disk activity; xfs (and all other modern filesystems) simply doesn't work that way. You must "umount" it before unplugging, else you'll break it. -- = ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Emmanuel Florac | Direction technique | Intellique | | +33 1 78 94 84 02 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@oss.sgi.com http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
