Well if even close() fails, I wonder if its worth to test anything else. It will likely fail too.
Does close work on fat?
Well, this is very inconsistent then. You can have duplicates (vol and non-vol files with same name) both having the data. I guess your data-less solution may be acceptable. But...
At that point it seems better to not manipulate the volume label in redirector, and instead leave things as they are. :)
> 2 - the creation of files will need to stop stripping the vol bit And return failure instead, I guess?
I'll give $200 to anyone who implements that.
Also mscdex should be extended to not require the host mount, but rather to use libmirage for the cd fs access. It would be silly to require to loop-mount the...
