Bug#4980: libc.so.5.4.7 breaks mcopy from ext2fs to win95
Package: libc5
Version: 5.4.7-1 and 5.4.7-2
Package: mtools
Version: 3.0-5
With libc.so.5.4.7, "mcopy myfile.txt f:/" fails. Reverting to libc.so.5.2.18
allows mcopy to work. Interestingly enough, "mdir f:" works with
both 5.4.7 and 5.2.18!
Here's the scenario:
> mcopy myfile.txt f:/
Cannot initialize 'F:'
Bad target
Here's my /etc/mtools.conf
> cat /etc/mtools.conf
drive a: file="/dev/fd0" exclusive
drive b: file="/dev/fd1" exclusive
drive c: file="/dev/hda1"
drive d: file="/dev/hda5"
drive e: file="/dev/hda6"
drive f: file="/dev/hda7"
drive g: file="/dev/hda8"
drive h: file="/dev/hda9"
drive i: file="/dev/sda5"
