150	Restore crashes during ext3 format of LVM	eleventeenth	Bruno Cornec	"Hardware: Dell PowerEdge 1855 (Blade server)
OS: Fedora Core 5 (LVM based)
Boot options: added ""ramdisk_blocksize=1024"" (fedora specific)

All blades in teh chasis are exactly the same. After install on one blade, we imaged a DVD using the most recent Mondo. Using this DVD, we attempted to restore onto another of the blades. This crashed out after it started to format the LVM partitions it just created.

This was first attempted on non-interractive. We then tried on interractive, then tried to mkfs.ext3 on the LVM partitions from expert mode. Each resulted in:

   Writing INODE tables: bad page state in process 'mkfs.ext2'

we could not get log files as it locked fully and needed reboot. Other errors were displayed on screen, but after about 30 seconds to 1 minute, the following was displayed:

   Bug: spinlock lockup on CPU#0,mkfs.ext2/7559,c06c9380 (tainted: G     B)

If we can provide further information, please ask.
