Hey:

Just got a commit i/o error for ext-3 in kernel-2.6.12-1.1398_FC4.  
Bunch of my files went wack-o and directory inodes became symlinks 
to ??.  Couldn't shutdown.  Init said I/O error.

Reverted back to 1390, recovery worked and files/dirs back to normal. I 
couldn't find any detailed logs and the kernel didn't panic.  So, it 
maybe a badblock on my HDD that it hit or something's screwed in the 
ext3 driver in 1398.

I'm not a kernel expert, but will be willing to run any diags on it to 
see if it happens again.  I've noticed that CONFIG_JBD_DEBUG is not 
set, so, i guess i'd have to recompile...

Anyway, has anyone else run into problems?

thx,
