hi :)

after testing htree support, i ran into similar problems:

booted 2.5, tune2fs -O dir_index on all filesystems,
umounted home
fscked -D home, mounted home, all is well...
rebooted into 2.4.19 and everything is still fine

then i got a 'maximum mount count reached' on / while booting 2.4
on fscking, it optimized some directories.
afterwards i had some files missing all over the root fs

after removing dir_index all files were there again

lately my / got checked again, and fsck complained about some
hashed directory entries on a fs without dir_index...
i had to press return several times but did not run into problems...
