Hello
I am still using a 2.0.20 Kernel and i can freeze it with the following sequence on the terminal (not using X-Windows).
cp -R /dos/d/somedirectory /usr/local/ ^^^^ ^^^^ ide-drive scsi-drive vfat ext2
it's about 30 MB and it takes some time...
While the whole thing is tranferred to my scsi-disk i try at another console > cd /dos/d/work > ls -l
-> the result is, that the copy stops and everything freezes (At first you can still change between terminals, but you can enter nothing)
I tried this 3 times (at the second my ext2-Filesystem had serious problems to recover)
even letting the computer working for 6 hours didn't do anything good.
P.S.
it's the same effekt when you copy from a ide to ide disk (4th try but now i've got a 2048 illegal names under dos, maybe a bug in the vfat-filesystem?)
