[Bug 76259] Kernel panic when reading ramdisk from dirty ext3 file system

[Thorbjørn Ravn Andersen]

Public bug reported:

I have a Xubuntu 6.06 machine which has worked perfectly but after the
power was pulled, it fails to load the initial ramdisk (a decompression
error), and panics.

Booting on a live CD and fcsk'ing the filsystem caused it to be fixed
from the ext3 journal, but it never got that far in the initial boot
process,so apparently the ramdisk file was for some reason dirty.

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
