I think that I may be getting data corruption with this combination, on a
Seagate disk (sorry I don't the part number the machine is at work and I'm
not ATM).

What I first noticed noticed is that sometimes some programs fail to run
with dynamic linker errors. I have done some more investigating and it
seems that the command rpm -Va on 2.2.15 and 2.4.0test2 give different
answers for the md5sum of some binaries.

I have got copies of 2 different binaries (rpms) that are the same size
under 2.2/2.4 but have different contents (md5sum / diff report this)

Is this a know issue, do you have any use for the 2 different binaries? I
can but them up somewere online, as they are only about 300k each.

Other things to note:
e2fsck -f reports no errors
These errors are after clean reboots
I am using dma
The errors are in different files each boot, but stay the same till the
next boot.
