interesting. i did fsck it under 2.4.9. maybe i'll boot into 2.4.10 and
fsck it again - although it shouldn't make a difference.

everything still works in 2.4.9.

just out of curiosity, has anybody tried using 2.2.x with the cryptoapi
patch. the more i run 2.4.x, the more i think i should just wait a while
for it to get stable.
