SubjectBad things happening to journaled filesystem machines; Was: Oops in kjournald
I've had 4 machines do the similiar things.  It happens during backups 
or during updatedb. This has happened on 2.6.9, 2.6.10, 2.6.10-ac7, and
2.6.10-ac8. I've seen several similiar reports with journaled file
systems. I use XFS exclusively; but have seen reports on XFS and EXT3.
I would report something more useful but what I'm usually left with is
XFS unmounted and nothing useful on the screen. This has been on Xeon,
Pentium-3 and Athlon systems. ...wish I could report more but perhaps it
will add /part/ of a data point.
