I like the patch (hasn't been applied, because I've been so totally
swamped by email lately that I've lost about 50% of the mails in the
noise). However, I'd be even happier if somebody made the minix-fs
detaction a bit more robust. Essentially, it should also load the root
inode, check that it's a directory, and possibly even check that the
first entries are "." and "..".
(The "." and ".." checks are not there so much for sanity-testing as for
automatic checking of the name length of the filesystem: it currently
uses a ratehr ugly setup with different magic numbers for 14/30 char
names, but it really _should_ check where "." and ".." are).
Any chance of somebody looking into this?
