- I'm using kernel v 0.97.2 and I have recompiled the find program using GCC
- v2.2.2d. I mount my c: and d: drives on /c and /d with the command(s)
- mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /c
- mount -t msdos /dev/hda2 /d
-
- when I perform a 'find /'
-
- find goes through and lists all the files in my linux extended file
- systems, but when it gets to the dos files systems I get the following:
-
- /d/bc/bgi
- /d/bc/bgi/aaa
- .
- .
- .
- /d/bc/bgi/zzz
- /d/bc/bin
- /d/bc/lib <---- doesn't go into bin and list the files there
- ... or in any other subdirectories of /d/bc
-
-
- In general, when find reaches the 3rd level of subdirectory nesting in a
- DOS file system, it will only list the files in the first such
- sub-directory.
-
- I'd like to help figure out what's going on, but I'm not sure if the
- problem is in find, or the fs/msdos stuff.
-
- Any help would be greatly appreciated,
-
