[Bug 49535] Reiser Filesystem becomes corrupted

[hanasaki]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.15-23-686

Just did some apt-get updates / installs and which failed because the
file could not be accessed... was sudo to a bash shell as root.

quick work around could be to put a ubuntu built 2.6.17 in the
repositories.

the file system shows up as:
ls -l /etc | grep modu
?---------  ? ?      ?             ?                ? /etc/modutils
-rw-r--r--  1 root   root        206 2006-06-02 22:23 modules

I had this problem periodically with debian testing / etch until
upgrading to a custom built 2.6.17...   running off knoppix and doing a
--rebuild-tree fixed the issue (knoppix5.01 is on kernel 2.6.17 - i
think)

** note the system in question has not crashed or been shutdown hard
ever since dapper was installed clean from a CD

ref:
The 2.6.15-3 to 2.6.15-4 upgrade breaks reiserfs. Any attempt to unlink
or rename a file results in an "Operation not permitted" error. Creating
and writing to existing files is still works ok.
