I tested reiserfs with a small file system and it crashed the kernel 2.6.5!

The steps was:
- creating a small partition (100 MB big)
- mkfs.reiserfs on this partition
- mounting the partition
- filling up the free space by copying data on this partition (cp -r /usr/*)
- BOOM! cp SEGFAULTS!!!! Sometimes it's Killed by the kernel. (kernel code bug?!)
  With dmesg I can see kernel panic style messages.

The running kernel:
lice03:~ # uname -ar
Linux lice03 2.6.5-7.5-smp #1 SMP Mon Apr 19 19:30:53 UTC 2004 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I tested it also on a Intel x86 32 Bits processor. I got the same error.

After the crashing of the file system, I lost 100% of the data!!!
Impossible to recover for me the data (I'm not reiserfs guru, but I didn't found how to do).

The system is no more rebootable by commands like "shutdown -r 0 or reboot", you must turn off the power
directly on the chase, because the Linux kernel become totally instable once the reiserfs system crashed.

Here is my output:

lice03:/ # fdisk /dev/hda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 9730.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

mkfs.reiserfs 3.6.13 (2003 www.namesys.com)

A pair of credits:
Vitaly Fertman wrote  fsck for V3 and  maintains the reiserfsprogs package now.
He wrote librepair,  userspace plugins repair code, fsck for V4,  and worked on
developing libreiser4 and userspace plugins with Umka.

Alexander  Lyamin  keeps our hardware  running,  and was very  generous  to our
project in many little ways.


Guessing about desired format.. Kernel 2.6.5-7.5-smp is running.
Format 3.6 with standard journal
Count of blocks on the device: 26096
Number of blocks consumed by mkreiserfs formatting process: 8212
Blocksize: 4096
Hash function used to sort names: "r5"
Journal Size 8193 blocks (first block 18)
Journal Max transaction length 1024
inode generation number: 0
UUID: bc140a87-65bc-41ac-bcc8-deb1045b13e1
ATTENTION: YOU SHOULD REBOOT AFTER FDISK!
        ALL DATA WILL BE LOST ON '/dev/hda8'!
Continue (y/n):y
Initializing journal - 0%....20%....40%....60%....80%....100%
Syncing..ok
