Bug Description

Binary package hint: zip

My first bug report. Sorry in advance if I include irrelevant info.

While attempting to retrieve data from an hfs+ volume (the hdd of a friend whose Mac just died) I mounted a new ext2-formatted backup drive as /mnt/1 and mounted the hfs+ volume as /mnt/2. I cd to /mnt/2/Users/frankmullin/ and issue the command as follows:

root@aspire:~# zip -0r /mnt/1/backup.zip *

This caused an out of memory error. (My laptop has only 512MB RAM and the directory contained 60 GB of files.) Not sure if other system info such as /proc/cpuinfo and /proc/meminfo are relevant, but here you go:

Hope this helps! I am excited to be testing Feisty!
