I had massive corruption on a new drive.
My new IDE ext3 drive had some problems, now it can't be mounted and
fsck fails.
Drive was new, less than one month in use. I had Feisty that was just
installed. Drive was using ext3. Currently, file rescue is a priority,
but after that I might have more details.

A bug can't get more serious than massive data loss. Because of the
corruptive nature, also backups may be affected. I find it interesting
that this confirmed bug is one year old, but its importance is
"undecided".
I hope that somehow, there is a non-OS explanation to this bug...
