[njbfs-devel] New njbfs-user, some probs

[Frank M. <me...@ma...>]

Hello,

last night I read about njbfs when looking for libnjb.
I got v 0.2.1 compiled it without problems (only already known warnings 
about deprecated malloc-includes etc.).
First I compiled it with gcc-3.1 and linux-2.4.18 and then run it on RH 
kernel linux-2.4.8-5.
As an automunt-user I used your make-target, but the the script-restart
failed ("/etc/rc.d/init.d/auto.... restart" more compatible?).
I set it up manually and it works, too.

My goal was downloading of the classic music MP3s on the NJB which are 
delivered with it. I got a kernel hang (or panic). Many lines flowed 
through the console (if you need the output I will have to set up a serial 
console).

Then I tried it on another system (Mdk 7.2, gcc 2.95.2, linux-2.4.9 with
Alan Cox patches). It also worked fine except for downloading the classic 
music MP3s. The attempt to download these caused an immediately reboot.

Q: Are the delivered MP3s protected in any way? I don't read about it in 
your docs.

I got the latest version of njbfs from CVS but it shows the same 
behaviour.

Q: Also deleting files doesn't work. Did I miss something?

A: Yes, I'm interested in helping/working at your code, but unfortunately 
my skills doesn't fit. Anyway: I own a Saehan (Germany: Schneider) MPMan
F20 with software for linux (some guy at UK wrote it) and I'm also very 
interested in using it in a fs way. I will take a closer look at the 
sources.

Thanx for great work!

regards,
Frank
