Bug Description

Binary package hint: amule

Critical bug for amule users sharing a windows partition

amule 2.2.1-1ubuntu1

I use a ntfs partition for the temp directory of amule, so that I can download either from linux and windows.
There is a really big problem in this: when I use windows to resume dowloads started from linux I get a blue screen telling me of a "page fault".

I will test what happens when the download is finished. Maybe the file could still cause errors in windows!

amule should not cause this type of bug. If you are still experiencing this problem, reopen the bug against ntfs-3g.

You shouldn't use this kind of partition for sharing. Just use fat32, and you should be fine.

However, this seems to me like a bug in windows's ntfs driver itself.
