Thank you very much, I checked these but I could not find much about
filesystem corruption problems. The most similar problem was mentioned
in http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/6/23/230 but was related to xen which
isn't in use here.

Regarding the memory test, memtest86+ ran for almost 70 hours without
detecting any error.

I trying to reproduce the problem using my installation disk and
running stress/dbench but wasn't able to do so. The only reliable way
to reproduce it is to install Ubuntu, which isn't very helpful :-(

As already said I'm no longer using ext3 for the systems in question,
so if switching filesystems really does solve my problem, this will be
my last post in this regard. In any case thanks for your  help.

regards Manfred
