*Description :
I'm running the 2.4.0-test5-xfs code from bonnie from Aug 20th.

I've run into a panic when mounting my filesystems.  I have 
30x 40GB raid luns.  On thursday and friday I was hitting the 
bug where the filesystems would not mount without doing the xfs_repair on them.

I put the new kernel source on, and recreated the xfs user utilities.
I ran xfs_repair on my filesystems, and some of them had errors and caused 
xfs_repair
to core dump.

hi Doug,

Looks like you've been bitten by a couple of bugs here.  Firstly,
the mkfs log zeroing problem has been fixed now, so there is no
longer a need to run repair to rectify this.

There are also some issues on the write path in xfs_repair, so
running repair can currently be a destructive operation.  I am
about to checkin a change which will switch off the write path
in repair for a little while (till I fix this).

thanks.
