mount(2) broken?

1999-12-04 Thread Brian W. Buchanan
After an unfortunate hard reboot today, the system fscked everything and then barfed attempting to mount /, claiming it to be unclean. I dropped to single-user mode and proceeded to re-fsck / and then tried to mount it again to no avail. Rebooting didn't help things either. # fsck -p /dev/wd0s1

Regarding a filesystem mounted on multiple boxes, check out DFS; there's a spec available from the Open Group in the UK for $58.00: http://www.opengroup.org/pubs/catalog.saved/p409.htm If you allow multiple R/W mounts, it's certainly not trivial. As Kirk said, you need a strong coherency

Allowing for cache writeback delays, is the speed of direct-to-shared-disk fast enough that using NFS as an "abstraction" layer would be faster than any network extant? Would it be as fast? would the effort to make this work exceed the cost of making real networks exist? It would seem that ther
