This was the first time i ran these tests on this particular box.I run the fsstress on different type of file systems one after the another (in no particular order ). Something like .. * create ext2 filesystem on a device * run fsstress. * unmount the device. I repeat the above steps with ext3, reiserfs and jfs. May be this combination is causing this problem. I have seen this problem on two partitions of a power box. Same problem seem to have been reported earlier against 2.6.25-rcx kernel. http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0803.2/1418.html Thanks -Sachin -- --------------------------------- Sachin Sant IBM Linux Technology Center India Systems and Technology Labs Bangalore, India --------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
