quick question

[tim fitz <fitzboy@iparadigms.com>]

Hi everyone,
This is Tim Fitz over at iParadigms (www.turnitin.com). We've been doing
some more playing with reiser and it seems to be running pretty well,
but every now and then our Dell PERC card seems to throw a tantrum and
kill the machine. Well either way, we have been happy for a few months
but now we are in the hole again. The machine is up but on two of our
partitions we have errors. After running reiserfsck we got the messages
below. I was wondering if there was any serious worries about trying to
fix these errors with reiserfsprogs-3.6.10? Anything I should worry
about? I know the --check happened with older utilities, but I just
downloaded the 3.6.10... Anything I should worry about? Or is there any
special thing I should do?

Thanks alot!!!

Tim
