fix for minix crash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Mounting a (corrupt) minix filesystem with zero s_zmap_blocks
gives a spectacular crash on my 2.6.17.8 system, no doubt
because minix/inode.c does an unconditional
	minix_set_bit(0,sbi->s_zmap[0]->b_data);
Here a fix (against 2.6.17.8).
