I've been using the PATH: device for my s, devs, l, libs and fonts
directories. I once tried to convert to pathass instead, but crashed
on startup. After making sure I was using the right handler (both of
these default to l:path-handler -> I changed the path: device to
pathdev-handler and changed the mountlist ) it still crashed. So I
continued to use path:
I've recently gotten sick of path: yet again and tried to switch back
to pathass. This time I isolated the bug.
The following causes pathass to chow down on all available fast ram
until it expires with a guru ....
pathass l: public:l,amiga:l
The reason seems to me to be a problem with pathass looking for l:path-handler
while it is changing l: which is something that should be able to be
fixed.
Anybody ever have this problem or have a solution?
