I am running kermit on a 80486 under RedHat 5.1 Linux. In downloading
files, I frequently get messages about input overruns. I gather that
this is a correctable error since the integrity of the file seems
uncompromised after the file is downloaded. Today I started getting
a new message in addition to the overrun message. It is:
ll_rw_block: device 03:02: only 1024-char blocks implemented (4096)
Again, it doesn't seem to have compromised the integrity of the file
transferred. However, if these messages indicate that I should be
doing something differently I would like to know about it. It would
also be nice to know what they mean; I'm clueless.
The file that gave the new message was a compressed tar file. When
I left kermit and tried to uncompress the file, I got the same
message:
ll_rw_block: device 03:02: only 1024-char blocks implemented (4096)
So maybe something else is going on, not specifically involving kermit.
Ignorantly,
Allan Adler
