I seem to be having trouble with a filesystem I just created.

I used newfs to create a new filesystem on /dev/rz0f.
(A segate Barracuda ST32550N)

The f partation is the last on the drive
### chpt -q /dev/rrz0c
/dev/rrz0c
Current partition table:
partition     bottom        top       size    overlap
    a              0      61439      61440    c,g,h
    b          61440     245759     184320    c
    c              0    4194057    4194058    a,b,d,e,f,g,h
    d         245760     430079     184320    c
    e         430080    2430079    2000000    c
    f        2430080    4194057    1763978    c
    g              0          0          0    a,c,h
    h              0          0          0    a,c,g


If I mount it on /mnt it works fine.

If I mount it on /usr/llocal and then cd into it and type pwd I get:

### pwd
pwd: getwd: Too many levels of symbolic links

I can still create file/directories and cd around though.  Everything 
else seems to be fine (fsck,icheck,dcheck, etc... all came back ok)

This only seems to happen when the filesystem is mounted on /usr.


Can anyone tell me what is happening?

Thanks in advance.

Brian
