It means it meet I/O error in some ocfs2 disk structure, not the disk.

I knew a similar bug in fsck.ocfs2, but didn't meet any similar issue in 
tunefs.ocfs2.
The bug in fsck is fixed by b987ee2 "fsck.ocfs2: Only ask available 
pages in o2fsck_init_cache."

A new clean FS will cause so much memory, strange?
would you mind run o2image and give us the image?
Then I can test it locally.
anyway, thanks for the test.

Regards,
Tao
