2.5.47 / unusual ext3 fs errors

Under 2.5.x I seem to be getting a lot of fs errors on fsck, mainly
dealing with bad inode counts in groups. Just now though, I had /var
remounted read-only due to the following:

t_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
...
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted
EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,9)) in start_transaction: Journal has aborted

And again, on reboot into single user mode and a full fsck bad inode
count errors were present. There were no errors detected whilst testing
the disk with -c.

Under 2.4.x my filesystems never showed errors.

I'd provide more info but this is all that I have. If you need more then
you'll need to tell me what to do to get it. :)

Thanks.
