Bug#57726: Still present in 2.2.7
Hello.
More info about this bug: I've tested the "mv" command from
2.2.7-2000-02-13 with the following results:
* It seems fixed when using "mv" from a /mnt-mounted root.bin file
on a potato system. I can't no longer reproduce the strange behaviour
as explained in the bug report.
* It still does strange things when used within the boot floppies.
To test the boot floppies I usually switch to the second virtual console,
mount under /mnt the partition where I have my normal development system
and do the following:
cd /mnt
mkdir BACKUP
mv * BACKUP
Today, "mv" behaved as a cp -a and my disk becomed full. It does not
work properly either when renaming a directory into something else
(it produces a lot of disk activity when doing this).
Thanks.
