I duplicated this on 2.5.37-bk as well as 2.5.38-bk. Maybe we have an off-by-one error? I see the following under 2.5.38-bk: [tmolina@dad boot]$ dd if=bzImage of=/dev/fd0 dd: writing to `/dev/fd0': No space left on device 5+0 records in 4+0 records out If I repeate the command I get lines of the blk: request botched messages with the following flashed briefly on the screen (I wouldn't have seen it if I weren't looking for it): dd: writing to `/dev/fd0': No space left on device 1441+0 records in 1440+0 records out - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
