In my bug, 340628, duped to this bug, the cause was almost certainly a race. I had multiple deletes going on in the filesystem at the same time. FWIW, this is not a problem with 2.6.27-12 from Intrepid which I am currently using with Jaunty due to this issue. -- Soft lockups (freezes) when deleting files from ext4 partitions on 2.6.28 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330824 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
