Hello,

reiser4-for-2.6.16-4.patch contains a bug which can cause fs corruption 
(it is the same bug as is in the first reiser4 patches for 
linux-2.6.17, now fixed).  

If you use that buggy patch, please upgrade you kernel and reiser4 code 
to 2.6.17/reiser4-for-2.6.17-3 or use new reiser4-for-2.6.16-5.patch.gz 
from ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4-for-2.6/2.6.16/.

The bug fix is available as a separate patch 
reiser4-for-2.6.16-4--missing-unlock-fix.diff at 
ftp://ftp.namesys.com/pub/reiser4-for-2.6/2.6.16/hotfixes/

Alex.

I stress tested this patch for 18hrs on my machine, and it seems stable.
Thanks for the update and warning.
