SubjectIrritating ext2fs corruption

Deleted inodes not being written to disk isn't usually a large
problem, but lately it has become one for me. I burn a lot of cd's and
have a few cd images laying around. About 1 time of 4 i delete such an
image, I do not get the disk space back. Only way to get it back is to
remount and fsck the partition. Always with just one "deleted inode
has zero dtime" and masses of scrolling.

I know this is is considered a "normal" behavior and nothing to worry
about, but it's still irritating... Any fix?

This is on a IDE drive, the problem seems to be more likely to occur
if there is a lot of disk access going on.
