I'm beginning to suspect that Roland's fixes to the ext2fs server (to solve the problems people were experiencing with the new e2fsprogs 1.15) are to blame. The
hdxx: bas access messages are probably caused by the fact that the ext2fs server tries to access a nonexisting block, either because of bad filesystem metadata, or because it doesn't interpret the data in the right way. Roland might fix the bug eventually, but the best thing to do would be for someone who actually is experiencing the problems to try to find out what's wrong. Either by debugging the filesystem or by carefully inspecting the code and comparing it with an older version that doesn't have the change associated with the 1999-08-23 ChangeLog entry. Mark
