Description of problem: Fedora FC2 and FC3(test1) always crash Dell Poweredge server. In general this happens on SMB or HTTP access, not always the first, but pretty shortly afterwards. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Within 5 mins Steps to Reproduce: 1. Take Dell 2550 Poweredge Server with two SCSI disks and raid controller 2. Install FC2 or FC3T1 3. Start SMB or HTTP service 4. Get HTTP or SMB to work a bit (File copy or PHP page that generates a fair bit of content) 5. Wait for crash and reboot - or screen loops with fs-Ext3 error 6. Install FC1 and note that problem does not occur. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
