One question: since that bug is repeatable, could you try updating your=20
uml-utilites? I don't have the sources for those ones (if the "2002" is=20
correct). At http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/dl-ists.html you can fi=
nd=20
later ones. Note: don't replace the old ones if you have a old UML binary,=
=20
since newer utilities could not work with it (but you're strongly suggested=
=20
to upgrade to 2.4.24-1um Uml kernel, not more since newer patches have bugs=
).

If the bug shows up again, I have one question: I need to know if, on the f=
s=20
holding the image, the block size is 1k? The size to use for COW blocks is=
=20
read from the filesystem.

Yes, that cannot make difference.
