I ran test 42 on my last kernel with ck patchset -
2.6.21.3-tp42-ck2-sws2-2.2.10 - about 20 times, but it did not show any
problem. Maybe I have to run it about a 1000 times, since about 0,1-0.5%
of my files were affected when it failed and as it seems to me the tests
only generates one fragmented file. Could it generate and check more
fragmented files in one ago without to much work?
Ciao,
