Bug Description
Client: Kub 7.04, 2.6.20-16-generic.
Server: Slackware 11.0
Today found this trying to mount an smb share: mount gave me an I/O error.
I looked up the mount:point and found this:
$ ls -l
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2007-06-06 20:28 a5
?--------- ? ? ? ? ? a7
a7 is the one in question.
I went into runlevel 1 and ran fsck, told me everything was fine. It
wasn't. Booted Slackware on the same box, had a look - all fine.
rm -rf'ed the dir and recreated it. Still fine.
Rebooted to Kub - all the same again.
Madness continues: made a new mount point a7b for the moment to cont' work, used that once,
today figured it is broken in the same way as the old one.
As it seems they break after I used them to mount the smb share.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you? Thanks in advance.
