| |
Under 2.5.7, running fsck on a 40GB disk partition (with perhaps 10GB in use) would reliably create a kernel BUG() call from slab.c at either line 1463 or line 1467, apparently due to a call to shrink_icache_memory (a few levels up the call stack). The disk drive is IDE.
Because this particular partition was a scratch area, I was able to work around the problem by doing an mkfs on the offending partition.
