Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-486
Version: 2.6.24-5
Severity: important
Hello,
the kernel linux-image-2.6.24-1-486 fails to mount the ext3 rootfs
on a (dino) laptop "Compac Amada 4120".
The output shortly before the kernel panic is the following:
"
JBD: novalid journal superblock found
EXT3-fs: error loading journal
mount: Mounting /dev/hda1 on /root failed: Invalid argument
"
After this the laptop needs to be powercycled. Otherwise even grub
fails to access the hard disk.
The corresponding output of the currently running kernel 2.6.22 is
the following:

The above dma timeouts were introduced with the update from kernel 2.4.x to
2.6.8.
