Hi,

I experienced the same problem with ext3 + 2.4.18 on a RAID-1. Out of nowhere
the following error popped up in the syslog, no other surrounding error
messages. The fs was mounted read-only automatically. After reboot and fsck
there were /a lot/ of errors on the disk. Virtually all errors fsck knows I
think. :) After fsck ran multiple times on the disk, lost+found was filled
with stuff from all accross the disk, but other than that the fs seems to
have survived it.

May 14 01:24:41 kianga kernel: EXT3-fs error (device md(9,0)): ext3_readdir:
bad entry in directory
#2142115: rec_len %% 4 != 0 - offset=0, inode=4186379891, rec_len=16755,
name_len=219
May 14 01:24:51 kianga last message repeated 2 times

Regards,
Oliver
