Re: Writing on windows partition from linux

Having the complete address of where it faulted in EIP as well as the
stack trace would be helpful -- I noticed you ....... them rather than
provide the complete address. You also may want to download ksymoops
from www.kernel.org so you can provide a trace with symbols of the
trashed stack. This would help the person who owns vfat track this down
more quickly for you.
