Re: XFS and kernel 2.4.18 error... need help



Hi Kevin - 

Running your oops through ksymoops would give some clue about where
things blew up.  There is something in the log replay that is going
wrong.

As a last resort, you can use xfs_repair to zero out the log, but
throwing away the log is a bit of a drastic step, so hold off on that
until you try a newer kernel, I think.

Was your 2.4.18 kernel the 1.1 release?  And if you're upgrading to
2.4.19, I'd try the 1.2-pre3 release for that.

Let us know what you find,

-Eric
