Re: Lost files on fatx

Well , I updated my kernel to 2.4.29 and patched it from the CVS. But the 
problem still occurs.

My Test

# mkdir AbC
# cd AbC
# touch 123
# mv AbC ABC
[Magic occurs at this point and the directory disappears]

# mkdir ABC
mkdir: cannot create directory `ABC': File exists

#ls
[Nothing]

# rm -r ABCrm

rm: WARNING: Circular directory structure.
This almost certainly means that you have a corrupted file system.
NOTIFY YOUR SYSTEM MANAGER.
The following directory is part of the cycle:
  `ABC/AbC'

Chank anyone shed any light on this problem ? Thanks in advance.
