Hey Dave -- yes fsck did fix it up, however with alot of stuff in
lost+found. Fortunately I had not moved much over yet so the damage was
very minimal.
Thanks for identifying the JFS version in the 7.3 kernel, I looked but
apparently did not know of the right place =)
I will patch 7.3's kernel up to fix stability. Thanks for the note Scott!
Good to know RH9's kernel has a more modern JFS so when I go to that in a
few months I will not have problems.
You guys are great =)
That's me, kreuch, on #linux btw...
Cheers,

After rebooting did fsck fix it up, and if so, did you lose anything
(look in lost+found)? The number of DT_GETPAGE warnings indicate that
there was quite a bit of corruption in the volume (at least in a
directory).

I'm not sure how up to date the JFS code is in 2.4.18-26.7.xsmp. I'll
try to find out by tomorrow if there are any known problems that may
have been fixed.
Thanks,
