Subject: Re: Problem with ufs nextstep in 2.6.18 (debian)

This fixes only symptom, not illness.
This check represent what code think about filesystem layout.
On what actually kind of UFS system did you test this patch?
When I sometime ago fixed similar issue for openstep ufs,
actully this was darwin's ufs which has the same layout,
I just set s_dirblksize to right value, may be for 
UFS_MOUNT_UFSTYPE_NEXTSTEP, UFS_MOUNT_UFSTYPE_NEXTSTEP_CD you need
do the same, see TODO items in fs/ufs/super.c.

Your right; I was using the NextStep ufstype on an OpenStep HD.
I have now checked an old (pre NS 3.3) floppy and a NS 3.3 CDROM
and they both need a  s_dirblksize  of 1024, just as the OpenStep
filesystem does. For the floppies, one can just use the OpenStep
option, but for a NextStep CDROM, the right s_dirblksize is
crucial. I would suggest changing both.

Thanks for the response,
