It is because v7 is unique file-system that doesn't check its
super-block for validness. May be this is due to v7 being a relic of
early heroic days of UNIX when there was only one file-system type.
Anyway, v7 will happily try to work on ext2 formatted device also.

You should just remove it from your kernel or at least make it a module.

Try to reach Krzysztof G. Baranowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (he was v7
driver maintainer) and report decoded "oopses" to him.
