Not a make clean but a "rm -rf *; git checkout ." after the previous corruption in the source/linux/linux-2.6 directory. Is it feasible to come up with a self test patch to ext4 to compare the allocated block bitmap with the bitmap in memory? I will do a fsck on every boot now and will setup a testsystem in the evening to try to reproduce this (without dm/lvm inbetween). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
