Hmm. So two people have said they haven't been able to reproduce the bug in 2.6.29-rc6. Unfortunately, one poster on the linux-ext4 claims that he experienced the problem (including getting his file system corrupted) while running that version, 2.6.29-rc6. I'll have to ask him to confirm this. Also, all of the most likely bug fixes in 2.6.29-rc6 were forward ported to 2.6.28.8 (and thus would have been in 2.6.28.9).
So we have some contradictory data out there. I'm not sure how to reconcile these reports. Can those folks who say they aren't seeing a problem with 2.6.29-rc6 try with 2.6.29-rc4 and 2.6.29-rc5, to see if they can trigger the problem there? -- 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
