Re: Linux 2.4.21pre3-ac2

I had some strange bug using 2.4.21pre3-ac2 :
at rebooting after a freeze (my machine freezes from time to time
whatever the kernel is, I'm still diging that point)
fsck.ext2 was not able to finish checking my /home (59Gb), it
systematically got a signal 11 (I tried several times).

rebooting using my previous kernel (2.4.20 with a minor patch for the
i845G AGP mess-up) was enough so that the fsck worked fine at the first
attempt with this kernel.

this triggers two questions :
o is the new piix-ide faulty ?
o are 256 Mb of memory enough for fscking a 58Gb partition ?

about signal 11, I tested my machine with several concurent kernel
built with no signal 11 before (with 2.4.20 and prior)

the machine is an ASUS P4PE motherboard, 2,4GHz PIV 256Mb
and a nvidia Ge4-Ti4200. (at signal 11, the nvidia tainted module was
not loaded yet :)

thanks in advance for any enlightment...

here-below, the lspci and /proc/pci...
