SubjectEXT2-fs error and geometry walk ... ???

Please not that all of this is the same boot.

Disregard the weird device major:minor

Sep 18 04:22:20 cascade kernel: EXT2-fs error (device ide2(33,1)):
ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory #2: rec_len % 4 != 0 - offset=0, inode=2, rec_len=14, name_len=1

This did not happen in the past.

I need to know what is going on in ext2 that now makes this error.

What is causing the geometry walk?

This is not a funky mirror there are truly four drives on this channel.

Last funky message
