The problem must be triggered by a combination of operations on a directory; I'm certain that if you access inode 24472381 on your filesystem on 2.6.17, that it'll shutdown your filesystem too. See the FAQ entry for a description on how to translate inums to paths, and also the repair -n step to detect any corruption ondisk. cheers. -- Nathan - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
