Hi Erhard, your initial bug report states that after pluging in your cammera, vol_id is executed (presumably the result of a kernel-generated hotplug event) and it segfaults. After this happens your camera is unusable until after you reinsert it. Could you please describe what happens after you reinsert it. > > > > BTW, vol_id doesn't have a man page, is there some documentation for > > > > it somewhere else. > > > No, but it's also a very simple program. > > Ok, does it do anything other than read the superblock? > For a FAT file system, it will also try to read the root directory. Hi Marco, Please provide some documenation for vol_id. It is a binary in /usr/sbin and thus should have a man page. But in lieu of that, could you please briefly describe what it is supposed to do. Does it just try and determine the valid partitions on a device, information wich can subsequently be passed through to mount? -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
