SuSE 5.1 Linux, kernel 2.0.35 using linear mode to pack several drives together for a news spool. I am using the mdtools with the SuSE dist. I have a feeling I'm missing a step. Clues?

I'm getting an awful lot of these. --- > Oct 19 15:00:04 news kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 09:00): ext2_find_entry: bad >entry in directory #34817: directory entry across blocks - offset=979456, inode=0, >rec_len=1024, name_len=8 > Oct 19 15:00:22 news last message repeated 16 times > Oct 19 15:00:23 news kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 09:00): ext2_find_entry: bad >entry in directory #34817: directory entry across blocks - offset=979456, inode=0, >rec_len=1024, name_len=8 > Oct 19 15:00:29 news last message repeated 6 times > Oct 19 15:00:33 news kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 09:00): ext2_find_entry: bad >entry in directory #34817: directory entry across blocks - offset=979456, inode=0, >rec_len=1024, name_len=8 > Oct 19 15:00:41 news last message repeated 18 times > Oct 19 15:00:42 news kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 09:00): ext2_find_entry: bad >entry in directory #34817: directory entry across blocks - offset=979456, inode=0, >rec_len=1024, name_len=8 -------------------------------------------- Brad Shelton [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Line Exchange http://ole.net Detroit News http://detnews.com
