Description Valent Turkovic 2006-09-17 13:24:56 UTC
Description of problem:
I know that you officially doesn't support anything but ext3 but you still put 
xfsprogs package with fedora and there is a really big problem with it.

xfsprogs prior to 2.8.10 have a really serious bug which leads to xfs partition 
errors and xfs_repair can't repair the errorous partition.

xfs partition crashes, gives read and write errors and running xfs_repair 
doesn't repair it. 

The bug is described in here:
http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=631

You need to put an updated xfsprogs 2.8.10 or newer package for fedora core 5, 
and all other.

Thank you.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xfs 2.6, fedora core 5

How reproducible:
just work with files on xfs partition, and soon they break

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
fatal error -- can't read block 16777216 for directory inode 23727780

Expected results:
xfs_repair should repair all errors on xfs partition
