Discussion / strange svn/ext3 problem
« on: August 21, 2007, 06:07:42 pm »
Hi
I've just discovered the game and as a faithful Linux user I tried to compile the package from the sources.
I ran into a strange problem, tho.
After creating a brand new partition via mkfs and running subversion for several times (buth trunk and main branch), I got 'no space left on device' problems, though there was plenty of space left.
I could create that file/directory manually by touch/mkdir, tho. I managed to bypass the problem creating a new partition just for the game with tweaked options (mkfs -T small).
I'm writing this because I think some clueless newbie can run into that problem, too and get rid of the game...
I'm not wuite sure what was the problem... I just think the svn structure should be somewhat modified to fit to out of the box partitions (I know that would be hard).
I hope that helps anyone!
