kernel BUG at fs/inode.c:1098! (2.6.8.1)

[Ken Moffat]

 I was looking at the mail from an rsync daily backup this morning, and
found that it had failed because rm couldn't unlink one of the old
backup files (i/o error).  Looking at the log found the following.

 There was another oops while I was shutting it down, I think it had
started to complain about orphaned inodes on the backup disk during
umount (?) but I didn't manage to catch that one.

 This is on a Celeron 1000 with 1GB physical memory but not using
CONFIG_HIMEM, kernel 2.6.8.1 compiled with gcc-3.3.3.

 What other information do I need to provide ?

Ken
