Hello,

okay, I am pretty much convinced. See

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6380

Thank you, guys!


Running an automated test case simulating switching the power off while 
writing data for a thousand times might still be a good idea if it has 
not already been done yet and someone can fund it.


Too bad that the XFS fix from 

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6757

still did not make it into a stable kernel release for 2.6.17!

I stronly recommend to apply it if you want to use 2.6.17 and probably 
2.6.16 as well!

Regards,
