When trying the new 2.1.63 kernel, I found that the module for msdos failed to load because of missing symbol shrink_dcache_parent.
Here's a (quick) hack to make it work:
===== CUT HERE ==== --- fs/msdos/namei.c.2.1.63 Sat Nov 15 12:32:26 1997 +++ fs/msdos/namei.c Sat Nov 15 12:32:26 1997 @@ -25,6 +25,10 @@ /* #define MSDOS_DEBUG 1 */ #define PRINTK(x) +#ifndef shrink_dcache_parent +#define shrink_dcache_parent(dentry) shrink_dcache_sb((dentry)->d_sb) +#endif + /* MS-DOS "device special files" */ static const char *reserved_names[] = { ===== CUT HERE ====
Note: if the ext2 fs is to be compiled as module (who does???), it will also fail on this missing shrink_dcache_parent. Same hack will work, but I'm not able to test it.
Regards, Frank.
