Hi,

I got a couple of the following errors on my JFS partition, which resulted 
in the partition marked as dirty and remounted read only:

ERROR: (device dm-0): diRead: i_ino != di_number

Around the same time I got some strange memory errors from the kernel, 
2.6.22.9. I googled a bit and this seems to have been a bug. Is that still 
the case? There was no info on the bugtracker that I could see. I ran jfs_fsck 
and 
it reported some errors that it corrected, and I could remount the partition.

I have not seen these kind of problems on machines that hasn't crashed with 
other filesystems, like RiserFS/Ext3/FFS and so, unless there really is a 
hardware failure. I previously ran ReiserFS on that partition, but with a 
disk change i switched to JFS, just for testing. But if I keep get 
corrupted filesystems on a running system I will switch back to ReiserFS, 
which ran perfectly for a couple of years.
