I suppose this is 2.4.19 shipped with SuSE? Is this the last version available from SuSE?
This is SuSE 8.1, I presume?
(and rpm -qa | grep k_i386 output please)

The decoded output is just a mess.
You seem to need to restart klogd after reiserfs module was loaded, so that it will
find new module and it's symtab. (or even better: run dmesg | ksymoops immediately
after oops have happened). That info would be very useful.

Also what will pop up if you'd run reiserfsck on that device? Are there any weird errors?

Hm. This man never came to us, though.

Not likely.

Not that I have heard of. I suppose you do not have power failures from time to time?

Bye,
