Subject: mount -o loop with truncated dosdisk.img uses 100% cpu and can't be killed
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2012 16:28:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120712162828.3f561315@localhost> (raw)

Hello,

I was trying to create a bootdisk to update my BIOS, and accidentially
made a 512byte image with only the FreeDOS header in it.

( Linux 3.4.4 )
# mount -o loop dosdisk.img /tmp
^C^C^C
It uses 100% CPU and doesn't listen to me when I do ^C, kill -9 etc. I
think this means it's stuck in the kernel?

Here is the base64 encoded image (use base64 -d command to unpack it).
