Hi all BSD-Users,

there is a bug within the pcfs file system!
Configuration is DOS-Partition is mounted as pcfs.
If you move a lot of files from one DOS-directory into another DOS-directory,
you will only find a subset of these files in the destination directory.
These "lost" files are sure in the destination directory but NOT visible.
unmounting and remounting solves this problem.

If this is a known BUG, did someone solved this problem??
