That's usually a hardware or driver, not filesystem, problem. I've had a couple of environments which have given data corruptions like that on IDE drivers in UDMA mode but which were fine in MDMA or PIO mode.

That can be just a matter of the config options used masking a driver problem. Can you still reproduce with "ide=nodma"? That would certainly point towards a driver or hardware fault.
