[coLinux-users] a small bug of cofs

[Paolo M. <pao...@gm...>]

I'm using the new 0.7.1 and it semms stable ! Very good !

There is a small bug ( I think ) in the cofs

I have mounted in /mnt/c my C drive

If I digit the commands
> cd /mnt/c
> ls

 the output is

...
flash/
...

Ok. Now I digit
> cd FLA*
and the prompt become
/mnt/c/FLA* >

The I digit the "ls" command and I have

/usr/bin/ls: .: Input/output error

This is not an important problem, but I think that it is good if someone can
solve it.
Thanks for this great SW !

Paolo

Solved as chdir into a directory was existing with other upper/lower 
match as the wildcard was given. This line triggers this harmless bug 
with buggy working directory:
   mkdir /mnt/c/foo ; cd /mnt/c/FO*

Same problem on shell without resolving wildcards:
   mkdir /mnt/c/foo ; cd '/mnt/c/fo*'

Fixed in http://www.colinux.org/snapshots/ for version 0.8.0.
Chdir return with 'file not exist' as error now.

Thanks for reporting.
