[Mldonkey-users] [patch #4917] HDD space check

[z]

Follow-up Comment #3, patch #4917 (project mldonkey):

> Having an option whether to shutdown the core if core_dir diskspace

If it doesn't shut down, and you also don't use the config_files_space.tmp,
what will happen to config file saving during the time the disk space is too
low to save them?  

Use both? Disable config saving if disk space is too low while the core is
running, except always save at shutdown as it can then remove the c_f_s.tmp
file?

If you "stat" the two directories and they return the same st_dev (device #),
I think they will be on the same partition. (see "man 2 stat").
