Subject: [3.7-rc8 regression] Buffer I/O error on device sda during boot
 (attempt to access beyond end of device)

Hello,

booting vanilla  3.7-rc8 kernel on Acer Aspire 1810TZ yields these
errors (I was using 3.6.9-1 and 3.5.5-1 from Debian experimental
before without these errors)

Any idea before I hit the bisect route? (should I worry about these errors? :) )


Thanks
