This problem did not occur before 2.6.10-bk7. That and all subsequent > kernels I've tried (Debian 2.6.11, stock 2.6.12-rc3, and 2.6.12-rc3-mm3) > cause the problem, consistently and repeatably. As does 2.6.12-rc4. The unusual 1K block size I used for this reiserfs seems to have exposed the problem; all my other reiserfs use 4K and have no problem. I copied its contents to a new reiserfs I created with 4K blocks and the later kernels work fine with the copy. I also tried turning off CONFIG_QUOTA on 2.6.12-rc4 - that worked with the 1K block reiserfs as well. I'm keeping the 4K block copy, since that works with QUOTA, and turning QUOTA off affects non-reiserfs fs as well. Note also:
- The 1K block fs caused the problem even though no quota mount options were set.
- All my reiserfs are devmapped, so I don't know if the problem occurs without it on a physical partition, or whether the symptoms would differ. HTH, -- George Ronkin <gronkin@nerdvana.com>
