| It has been discovered that versions of `osxfuse` prior to `2.7.0` will cause a kernel panic. For everyone's sake, please upgrade (latest at time of writing is `2.7.4`).

There was a problem hiding this comment.
This is a tad confusing:
There is also a homebrew formula using cask but users report best results installing from the official OSXFUSE installer package:
which then goes on to show the homebrew install method.
Maybe the sentence should read:
Users report best results installing from the official OSXFUSE installer package, but there is also a homebrew formula using cask:

Could you test IPFS with osxfuse 3.6.3? I'd like to update the suggested version as the 2.7 series is a bit out of date by this point but don't want to recommend a known broken version. |
|
Yeah. Ended up not working for me: Although, I'm not sure if that's directly related to the version of osxfuse or something else. |
|
Possibly related: #1048 Make sure nothing is currently mounted on either |
|
ipfs should probably do some sanity checks before attempting to mount. Should help mitigate these random issues a bit |
|
The library we use bazil/fuse is not maintained currently. We might have to migrate to https://github.com/hanwen/go-fuse some time soon. We also really need to extract and clean up the fuseIPFS code into its own module. |
|
We're going to switch to an entirely new system anyways. |
