I will try that as fast as I can. I am not using -mm's since 2.6.2-mm2 because they are usually too broken for me :-(. IIRC, similar bug was discussed on #gentoo-bugs recently and is probably somewhere in Gentoo Bugzilla (http://bugs.gentoo.org). Several people noticed this. So probably if you can mount and use NTFS for a while and then umount it without problems this is probably fixed. If not - you can reproduce it simply (it is 100% reproductible and occurs only on inotified kernels). Thanks, Grzegorz Kulewski
