It did happen every time I tried, with one exception. Is just X crashing, or is the system completely unresponsive (including over the network)? If the former, do you have corresponding X and kernel logs? It's not like a freeze of X. For example I'm able to switch to a serial terminal but I can't login. The response is: /bin/login: error while loading shared libraris: /lib/libpam_misc.so.0: invalid ELF header Ext3-fs error (device hda6): ext3_lookup: deletet inode referenced: On the other hand some tools like pwd might still work. However the system is unusable after a crash because it's impossible to start basic programs or even login and I guess it won't work over the network either. I didn't try that but samba didn't work anymore. Anyway I'm going to add kernel and Xorg logs. Maybe you'll find something interesting in there. One Crash happened Nov 7. approx 13:00 that one is in the kern.log filesystem corruption is likely to be a kernel bug, so reassigning this bug over there. As another data point, does this also happen after a fresh boot, or only after a suspend/resume cycle?

Bug#548290: A solution (for me, at least)
Hi, A little bit more digging, and I think I know what's going on, for me at least. (Other reporters' experience might vary) The machine in question originally had Windows installed on it; the Linux installation was performed several years ago now, and completely wiped all traces of Windows from the machine (i.e. reused the entire disk, not resizing partitions and using empty space). This reassignment of the partition, however, didn't (and probably still doesn't) write zeros everywhere; as I understand it, there are some bits of the superblock left untouched by a repartitioning like this. Meanwhile, the blkid command (or rather the partition detection logic in libblkid1) in util-linux-ng was rewritten recently. The new logic, present in util-linux_2.16-4 (i.e. the version in testing and unstable as I write) is not sufficiently robust in its detection, and returns a false positive of vfat, based on the remnants of the disk superblock from way back when, as well as the ext3 filesystem that is really there. The blkid command, again as I understand it, is called to populate the /dev/disk/by-uuid/ directory in the initramfs. If it detects two filesystems simultaneously, the uuid is not inserted (it's treated as a failure). This explains both why the disk does not show up in the initramfs /dev/disk/by-uuid directory, and also why it's only affecting this newer (2.6.30-2) kernel on my system: that's the only one whose initramfs has been generated using the new blkid. The solution that I have found acceptable is to apply the last patch in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/428318: specifically, the patch to make vfat detection more robust at http://launchpadlibrarian.net/33034738/util-linux-ng-2.16.1.patch. (This patch has already made it into util-linux-ng's upstream repository, but so has a lot else :-) Then regenerating the affected initramfs with update-initramfs -k 2.6.30-2-686 -u gave me a booting system. So to summarize, this isn't (at least for me) a bug in the kernel image, but with the util-linux-ng tools, and maybe this solution (or others documented in the launchpad bug threads, such as writing zeros to the first 512 bytes of the partition -- I didn't feel brave enough to do that) will help the other people reporting this bug here.

Although this is obviously desirable, it effectively breaks any upgrades of packages that run update-initramfs during post-install. Thus my suggestion is running lilo -H and rely on the user to rerun lilo after fixing the array. Ideally, update-initramfs should run lilo -t and grep for this specific problem, and if detected, it would prompt for overriding while warning about the risks, and if the user decides to do so, run lilo -H. -- Package-specific info: -- /proc/cmdline auto BOOT_IMAGE=Linux ro root=fd00 -- /proc/filesystems cramfs reiserfs fuseblk -- lsmod Module Size Used by nvidia 7249460 34 binfmt_misc11400 1 rfcomm 37016 1 l2cap 23232 5 rfcomm button 8208 0 ac 5508 0 battery10308 0 ipv6 239524 16 fuse 42388 1 snd_emu10k1_synth 7296 0 snd_emux_synth 31360 1 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_seq_virmidi 7168 1 snd_emux_synth snd_seq_midi_emul 6208 1 snd_emux_synth snd_emu10k1 123328 3 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_seq_dummy 4036 0 snd_seq_oss29760 0 snd_seq_midi8480 0 snd_seq_midi_event 7360 3 snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi snd_seq46864 9 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_midi_emul,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq_midi_event snd_rawmidi23264 3 snd_seq_virmidi,snd_emu10k1,snd_seq_midi firmware_class 9984 1 snd_emu10k1 snd_intel8x0 32412 6 snd_ac97_codec 93220 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0 snd_pcm_oss39904 0 ac97_bus2560 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_seq_device 8012 8 snd_emu10k1_synth,snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1,snd_seq_dummy,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq_midi,snd_seq,snd_rawmidi snd_mixer_oss 15872 1 snd_pcm_oss snd_pcm72772 7 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss snd_timer 21380 5 snd_emu10k1,snd_seq,snd_pcm snd_util_mem4864 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd_hwdep 9092 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd48804 25 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_emu10k1,snd_seq_oss,snd_seq,snd_rawmidi,snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm_oss,snd_seq_device,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_hwdep hci_usb16668 2 bluetooth 50148 7 rfcomm,l2cap,hci_usb emu10k1_gp 4032 0 gameport 15304 2 emu10k1_gp pcspkr 3392 0 rtc13144 0 shpchp 31380 0 pci_hotplug29568 1 shpchp soundcore 7840 1 snd snd_page_alloc 9800 3 snd_emu10k1,snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm i2c_nforce2 6144 0 i2c_core 24000 2 nvidia,i2c_nforce2 nvidia_agp 8732 1 agpgart32264 2 nvidia,nvidia_agp tsdev 8320 0 evdev 9664 4 reiserfs 221952 3 dm_mirror 21376 0 dm_snapshot16804 0 dm_mod 52672 11 dm_mirror,dm_snapshot raid1 22784 1 md_mod 74196 3 raid1 ide_cd 36896 0 cdrom 33184 1 ide_cd ide_disk 16832 0 generic 5124 0 [permanent] sd_mod 27584 2 usbhid 26144 0 hid25792 1 usbhid amd74xx13788 0 [permanent] ide_core 114436 4 ide_cd,ide_disk,generic,amd74xx sata_sil 11208 1 firewire_ohci 16960 0 firewire_core 39424 1 firewire_ohci crc_itu_t 2432 1 firewire_core ata_generic 7876 0 libata116912 2 sata_sil,ata_generic scsi_mod 137356 2 sd_mod,libata
