Uhmmm, don't scare me!!! Three of our production servers (we have 5,
the others are running 2.0.30) are running 2.0.32. I heard that the
file system corruption problems were in 2.0.31 and that they were
fixed in 2.0.32.

As a matter of fact, I did not want to upgrade from 2.0.30 to 2.0.32
but we had a server crash (because of a power supply failure) and then
we got a new server that came with an Adaptec AHA-2940U (as opposed to
the NCR 53c810 the old server had). We did not have any problems with
the SCSI disks but when doing backups to our SCSI DAT unit lots of
timeouts and errors were generated. The problem dissapear afetr
upgrading to 2.0.32 so that's the reason we're there.

Up to now, 2.0.32 has been rock solid in those 3 production servers. I
have 10 days of uptime in one of them. I am knocking on wood and I
expect things do not change.

Also, the consensus in the linux-kernel list seems to be that 2.0.32
is a pretty stable kernel.

See ya!
