Better yet maybe understand the hardware ... I didn't talk about the 32bit issue at all (as you can read from my mail above), I simply said why it worked in 2.4 -- because that data path is never hit for a file system request. So maybe if you ever bothered to read the emails. Or better yet, not assume you know everything. -- Jens Axboe - 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/
