Hello Marcelo,
You're my last hope :-)
Ever since 2.4.25, when compiling it in to any RedHat 7.3 machine, the
following appears in dmesg:
attempt to access beyond end of device
03:02: rw=0, want=1020128, limit=1020127
I traced this to the mount version that ships with RedHat 7.3
(mount-2.11n). Upgrading mount to a newer version gets rid of the
messages, but I am unsure as to whether or not the errors are really
going away. Do you have any comments/suggestions concerning this issue?
Thanks a million!
Bert

Hi Bert,
I saw your previous email to lkml but didnt answer...
This error is harmless: Dont worry. It will be fixed in -rc1 (which should
be out
Monday or so).

Thanks a million! I was pulling my hair out over this one.
