REISER4 problem,

REISER4 problem,

[John]

Hello,

I think I may have found a bug.

I'm using reiser4 for my /home directory on a 2.6.15 (ubuntu) patched 
kernel for reiser4.

Yesterday I filled my /home once, then emptied it a little, then filled 
it again, and so on about 3 or 4 times. I shut it down properly and all 
seemed ok.
Then today when I started it, the partition was completelty messed up. I 
fixed it with fsck but I had a lot of troubles to get it back working 
even when fsck said it was ok...
I had many different error messages in dmesg, like error input/ouput, 
inode error, and sd error.

If I can help you on anything about this please ask,

Thanks,

John

That sounds more like a broken disk than a Reiser4 error. Can you post
the error messages from dmesg?

Hello,

I'm sorry but I sent this message after fixing it. Also I could not do 
much when the partition was messed up, even reboot was impossible, but I 
should have written down the messages on a paper..
I'll look if some info is still in /var/log/something.

It would be interesting to take a look at error messages you get from
kernel and at reiser4.fsck's output.
