With the write blocksize, I can read a dosemu virtual hard disk with loop... But when I try to write a file I got: pr 9 22:37:22 compaq kernel: Adding Swap: 36252k swap-space Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: 07:00: rw=0, want=222, limit=221 Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: getblk failed Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: 07:00: rw=0, want=223, limit=221 Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: getblk failed Apr 10 01:37:43 compaq kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device syslog line 5789/6012 96%
and I paniced badly and then had to hard boot.
Possibly the virtual hard disk is not necessarily full size...
