There's a bug in 2.1.36 in fs/inode.c. There's one line patch
somewhere on the kernel mailing lists...

With 2.1.x series, you have to add more explicit routes in
/etc/init.d/network (with the netmask and the interface).
I don't know if the defaultroute option of ppp is 2.1-ready. Diald is.
You might eventually want to add the route manually in the ip-up
script and disable defaultroute.

The modules configuration files changed a lot in with modutils
2.1.34, have a look at the distrivuted /etc/conf.modules. Your old
one is no more valid (the paths have changed).
I had corruption problems with NFS mounted partitions and 2.1.3[56].
I'm reverting to 2.0.14 right now (I'm looking for a SMP-stable
kernel).
