Hi,

This happened in 2.2.0-pre5-ac1 and happened again in pre9, while
trying to read a msdos floppy with bad blocks (pre5 incident with "mdir"
and while mounted in pre9), my kernel crashed solid no console switching,
no ping and no Alt+SysReq. Here's what was logged :

Jan 23 13:47:26 fsck kernel: Directory sread (sector 0x15) failed
[snip..]
Jan 23 13:47:27 fsck kernel: Directory sread (sector 0x15) failed

sector 21
