Good morning,

yesterday I started getting lots of

Jun 26 23:13:26 linteuto kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 08:02): ext2_find_entry:
bad entry in directory #555012: directory entry across blocks - offset=9596, inode=1155081, rec_len=16432, name_len=6
Jun 26 23:14:33 linteuto kernel: EXT2-fs error (device 08:02): ext2_find_entry:
bad entry in directory #555012: directory entry across blocks - offset=9596, inode=1155081, rec_len=16432, name_len=6
Jun 26 23:15:56 linteuto last message repeated 2 times

Always the same numbers.

The system is running 2.0.36 and has been for the last 138 days. The disks are
hardware RAID (mirrored, GDT controller), so a bad disk is rather unlikely.

Anything you want me to check before I upgrade the kernel and fsck the fs ?

For what its worth, here are the fs parameters:
