Timing issues. Maybe it isaccessing memory that has been freed already. Maybe it isn't getting a lock on some stuct and if you do it slowly, the operation has a chance to complete before another one deletes the struct. Who knows, the ksymoops output will hopefully point us where to look. Cheers, Andreas -- Andreas Dilger http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2resize/ http://www-mddsp.enel.ucalgary.ca/People/adilger/
