Re: Cannot create files/directories that have numeric only names

A few more things:

  1. Does it affect all filesystems (this seems to be implied, but I'm not sure)
  2. Does it only affect ext3 filesystems - can you unmount one of them, and mount it up ext2, and see if the problem persists. If so, recreate the ext3 journals.
  3. If the answer to 2 is no, does it affect other filesystem types (mount -t tmpfs -o size=32m tmpfs /mnt/tmpfs)?
  4. Does it affect newly created filesystems - you can create a ramdisk filesystem like mkfs.ext3 /dev/ram2 ; mount /dev/ram2 /media
