Can anybody tell me which kernel version is optimal for testing reiser4.
I've found it runs stable on 2.6.8.1-mm2 for me except that i
occasionaly get "wrong bytes" errors when doing a fsck. I read in the
mailing-list archive that this error should be fixed, but is it also
fixed in 2.6.8.1-mm2? I've been burned using 2.6.9-rc1-mm1 for some
time, which has a problem with files which are bytes%4096=0 bytes big.
So i tried 2.6.9-rc1-mm3 today and found it was unstable on my pc (weird
hangs) but i'm certain this had nothing to do with reiser4.
So to make it short: Which kernel do you guys use for developing/testing
reiser4 because it's hard to test when you can't tell if it's a general
kernel bug or a problem specific to reiser4. Is there a patch that can
be applied to the vanilla 2.6 kernel? On the website there is only the
notice to use some mm-kernel. Where are the latest patches?
regards,
Michael

The bug about which you read was that files got number of bytes twice
more that they had to. This bug is fixed. 2.6.8.1-mm2 contains the fix.
So, I assume you encounter somthing different. Would you show what does
fsck report, please?

What is that problem?

There is nothing yet which would have to be pushed up urgently. AFAIK.
