I've confirmed this is a UFS bug related to sparse files: "truncate -s20G f1 && rm f1" is enough to trigger the error and start generating .viminfo files that appear to be 20GB. When running fsck I get an "Invalid block count" error if I just reboot without removing the .viminfo file; if I do remove it, I get a "Partially allocated inode" error. -- Bruce Cran _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
