I've been having trouble with VMWare 5 and SL4... I've submitted a big-report the VMWare folks -- but they can't/won't replicate it. The problem is that after I use VMWare for a while, it will cause the device holding /home (/dev/mapper/VolWhatever) to become read-only. Remounting doesn't help -- I have to reboot before I can write to /home again. I've rebuilt the machine from scratch and I see the same behavior. I'm running a pair of mirrored HDDs, with LVM running in /dev/md2, and then ext3 filesystems on top of LVM. (The /dev/md1 device is used is /boot.) Has anyone seen anything similar? Any suggestions? Thanks, -Luke P.S. It doesn't seem to happen on my work-computer, which is running SL4 on non-mirrored drives. The /home volume is delivered by an NFS automunt on that computer, though. -- Luke Scharf, Systems Administrator Virginia Tech Aerospace and Ocean Engineering
