I have to confirm this strange problem. But this not only happens when moving disks
from the NSLU2 to the PC. It also happens when I attach a disk from the PC to the NSLU2.
Mounting with "-t ext2" is okay.

$ uname -a
Linux nas 2.6.25-2-ixp4xx #2 Wed Jul 16 07:37:56 UTC 2008 armv5tel GNU/Linux

In the running system:
ls: cannot access /home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc: No such file or directory

The backup from yesterday at another harddrive is okay:
#ls -l /media/samsung/snapshot/full-2008-08-24T20\:46\:25+0200/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc
-rw-r--r-- 1 glockenstein users 24064 11. Jul 2002  /media/samsung/snapshot/full-2008-08-24T20:46:25+0200/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc

Now  I move both disks to the PC.

The bad thing is now okay:
#ls -l /mnt/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc
-rw-r--r-- 1 glockenstein users 24064 2002-07-11 11:50 /mnt/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc

The good backup is not to be seen anymore:
#ls -l /mnt/snapshot/full-2008-08-24T20\:46\:25+0200/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc
ls: /mnt/snapshot/full-2008-08-24T20:46:25+0200/home/glockenstein/daten/Word/post/KündigungCt.doc: No such file or directory
