Bug#384609: linux-image-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp: kernel oops in clear_inode on dual core system under heavy disk load
Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp
Version: 2.6.16-17
Severity: important
During an "rm -rf" of a large directory tree, kernel logged an oops. Any
subsequent access to that disk hangs.
It is likely that a similar "rm -rf" of the same directory tree was already
in progress at the time. Note that this is a dual core system running
an SMP kernel.
