They frequently experience corrupted journals rendering the ext3 partition in read-only mode. More important than recovering the filesystem, I am interested in finding the root of the problem.
The common hardware that all of these machines share is a Hitachi deskstar drive (New IBM drive)...
Searching through the mailing list and google I have seen references to problems with this particular drive but for the life of me and (the broken redhat search tool) I cannot pin down specific information on the cause of these failures.
A bug within the IDE bus driver and the harddrive, seems most sensible. Please help me find the right place to look.
Thanks in advance,
-Greg
