Bug Description
dd segfaults on amd64 when just before it should show the message "XX bytes transferred in YY seconds (ZZ bytes/sec)".
It happens no matter what I set the blocksize to.
This bug can be reproduced by doing, on an amd64 architecture PC:
tobi@ubuntu:~$ echo "hello world" > file1
tobi@ubuntu:~$ dd if=file1 of=file2
0+1 records in
0+1 records out
Segmentatie fout
On the same amd64 computer, but in a 32 bit chroot:
tobi@ubuntu:~$ dd if=file1 of=file2
0+1 records in
0+1 records out
12 bytes transferred in 0.000207 seconds (57968 bytes/sec)
If a backtrace is needed because you can't reproduce the bug just ask and I'll provide one.
To post a comment you must log in.
I can't reproduce this on Dapper AMD64.
I think the backtrace would be welcome, and more informations about your system too.
