Don't know if it relates, but I once had ext3 curdling caused by a system firmware defect that changed how the BIOS reported disk sizes to the kernel ... it would work fine provided I always booted cold, inclusive-or never used a particular video mode. Once in the state, the reported disk size was different, partition alignment changed, and fsck kicked the dunny down.
