An attempt was made to access a block beyond the legal max size for an ext2 file. That probably implies a corrupt inode, because the ext2 file write code checks for that limit and won't attempt to write beyond the boundary.

ext2: block > big ?
What does a message like 'ext2: block > big' indicate? This was kernel 2.2.18aa2. The machine was completely unresponsive when I got there. There were a bunch of block>big messages on the screen, but no oops. In my grogginess, I didn't have the sense to copy down the whole message, but it did also mention the device (8,9?). The major 8 scsi devices in use are three partitions of one disk -- two 15GB and one 50GB.
