Public bug reported:
Hello all,
I think the bug I'm facing now is a regression of an older bug.
Short summary and system description:
Ubuntu 32bit 8.10, 4gb Ram, linux-server kernel image 2.6.27.11 (because of PAE
support to see all RAM).
Partitions are like this:
3aware hardware RAID card - 2 x HDD 1 TB (RAID-1 hardware); LVM on top of this
for snapshot functionality
Partitions:
/boot
LVM:
/ - reiserfs
/home - xfs
/storage - xfs
swap
What I was doing when I noticed the bug:
- copying files from the older hard-drives to the new setup
Output you will find in the attached logs (from dmesg).

[ 8245.217222] =======================
Basically this is what appears and I think it relates to XFS.
I would be grateful if you guys could take a look and help.
Thanks,
