find on AFFS

[Ken T. <ke...@we...>]

Hello,

On my system, "find" does not recurse into directories on AFFS file
systems, ext2 is OK.

Can someone verify this is the case ?

Ken.

Does "-noleaf" make a difference? The problem is that AFFS has no link
count, so the value is just faked (1 = no hard links, 2 = at least one
hard link). I was already thinking about using different values here for
directories. I'm not sure if it's really needed, since AFFS isn't the
only filesystem with that behavior.

And after reading the man page I understand why.

Thanks, Ken.
