Interesting stuff. Out of curiosity I just tried this myself, both client
& server are virtual machines running Debian/stable (3.2.0-4-amd64) and I
was able to reproduce this. A test case would be:


I still haven't rebooted that machine - last chance to ask for any test info - as it looks like you have a test case anyway.

I haven't lost any data that I know of  - just programs complaining etc.

IMO, at one time, jfs was really a better choice ( good set of tools). Even in a few cases where hardware failed the jfs tools worked well. Today with everyone banging on ext4 it has become the better choice. ( I don't think IBM is interested in supporting jfs - no idea if they are phasing out jfs2? ).

The world runs on individuals pursuing their separate interests.
The great achievements of civilization have not come from
government bureaus. Einstein didn’t construct his theory under
order from a bureaucrat. Henry Ford didn’t revolutionize the
automobile industry that way.
