I, for one, have experienced ext2 corruption in 2.0.33 multiple
times. After reinstalling a bare system (again and again) and performing
a very large number of downloads / compiles / fs access it
invariably gives me ext2 block errors. Unfortunately I don't have the
exact errors to copy down, but even after fsck'ing and trying to salvage
as much as I can I still lose a large amount of data. I wish I knew how
I could trace this bug better; it is why I am avoiding 2.0.33 right now.
My system:
Intel Pentium Pro 200MHz
3.1GB WD33100 HD
Adaptec 2940UW SCSI Card
96M RAM
