[OpenAFS-devel] How stable is afsd with cache on /dev/loop ???

[Vitaly]

I was try install openAFS 1.2.13 on my linux(2.4.22) machine.
afsd require ext2 filesystem for itself's cache but all my filesystem have ext3.

I create a file with size 130M format it to ext2 end mount it to /usr/vice/cache via loop.

But afsd sometimes go down with all system. also kernel message in log about filesystem corruption on /dev/loop.

afsd configured to use little more then 100MB of cache.

Question: it's like disk corruption or afsd bug???

if I move cache from loop to raw partition it will be more stable???

afsd always dead at time intensive afs usage (about some hundreds files per second)
