Subject: Re: VMWare on 2.6.25 kernel
Thank you for testing.....I found the error too (FC7) !!!   And then a
search found another FC9 error:

http://fcp.surfsite.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=55632&fo...
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.fedora.testers/59672

Ok..same error as yours and greno.....no problem...i made some
progress...vmblock changes is due to path_release() removed (replaced
by path_put()) and then the dentry error have been patch
as .path.dentry......as nameidata has a subfield called path now...so
let me try again....

thanks.
