Subject: Re: Fixing dired hangs when NFS mount goes AWOL
Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2011 14:59:24 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAN4ruPhxsowYrxqiyuUU2zZ45xNgz1zv-_1t+75h02v0kC1wsg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

The check is only skipped if the directory you're trying to insert
into dired is remote. If the dir is local, it will attempt the check,
and the 'df' call will hang because it's waiting on info from the NFS
filesystem.
