- Sounds like you have a cycle in your links, which keeps the path looping and growing
- until the max size is reached.
-
- Also be aware of dynamic links:
- ebh{wjw}7: ll /bin
- 1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 14 Dec 2 15:26 /bin@ -> $(SYSTYPE)/bin
-
- If in this case SYSTYPE is not set, you get that "/bin" points to "/bin". Which gives
- you your loop.
