[MirageOS-devel] Mirage-Block-Unix Error

[Rupert Horlick <rh572@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm running into a very strange issue using mirage-block-unix and I was wondering if anyone had some insight.

The core of the issue is that connecting to the same file (disk.img or whatever) and writing in two different locations is giving completely different results.

If I connect and write to offset 0 in my unix home directory (an NFS directory), then everything is completely fine. If I then go to /local/scratch (local scratch space on a department machine, so it's on the directly attached disk), and connect and write in exactly the same way I get the following error:

(Failure "write: Invalid argument in write '' at file disk.img offset 0 with length 512")

I've done the same thing in various other locations and never run into this error before. I've triple checked permissions and everything should be completely fine. Any ideas?

Kind regards,

Rupert
