Did you enable IDE TCQ in your 2.6 kernel? To quote http://www.namesys.com/ download.html Don't enable TCQ (Tagged Command Queuing) in 2.5 (and modified 2.4) kernels. TCQ is known broken currently and it will corrupt your filesystems for sure. Quinn On Friday 07 November 2003 06:39 am,

I really doubt there is any solution that would take less than a few hours. I am sure it is possible to recover much of the data but to the best of my knowledge no tool exists that can recover from an abandoned root node (for reiser4). Though I believe recovery in this case would just involve
