Done, now featuring 2.6.30.3 ;)

root@bazooka:/data/web/ed/90/48/walotux.walon.org/htdocs/tmp/cache/e# cat spip%3Farticle19.f8740dca 
cat: spip%3Farticle19.f8740dca: Input/output error

It has much more sense now. We thought the problem was around NFS due 
the the previous error message, actually this is probably not the best 
looking path.

root@bazooka:~# debugfs /dev/md10
debugfs 1.40-WIP (14-Nov-2006)
debugfs:  icheck 88541562
Block   Inode number
88541562        <block not found>

There were nothing for a while, but since the reboot there are some 
about this inode: 

EXT3-fs error (device md10): ext3_lookup: deleted inode referenced: 88541562

Let's keep dir_index for now, then.

We also thought about motherboard, CPU, or chassis issues, but 
everything has been replaced.


The check of the MD raid6 array always ends happily:

Jul  5 01:06:01 bazooka kernel: md: data-check of RAID array md10
Jul  5 01:06:01 bazooka kernel: md: minimum _guaranteed_  speed: 1000 KB/sec/disk.
Jul  5 01:06:01 bazooka kernel: md: using maximum available idle IO bandwidth (but not more than 200000 KB/sec) for data-check.
Jul  5 01:06:01 bazooka kernel: md: using 128k window, over a total of 143373888 blocks.
Jul  5 04:28:28 bazooka kernel: md: md10: data-check done.


We never saw modification to the data of files themselves, maybe it 
happened, but we never saw any evidence of that. Of course, due to the 
modification of the filesystem structure, we saw files replaced by other 
files ;)
