[Bug 453579] Re: corruption of large files reported with linux 2.6.31-14.46 on ext4

You can add me as a second user seeing the problem. My original report
is here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/459839

I've seen the bug with two independent installations to ext4. In my
case, a fsck does seem to repair the problem, making a non-bootable
system bootable again. The occurrence of disk errors is sporadic.

You asked about RAID early in the thread. I have a raid controller on my
mobo, which is currently not being used. The SATA drive is plugged
directly into the main connections, and is reported as /dev/sda

I wouldn't mention this at all, but for the fact that some live CD
versions of linux (gnuparted LiveCD, for example) gave me fits when they
recognized the RAID controller, tried to associate the drive with the
RAID device, and therefore prevented me from reformatting the drive.
Made me wonder if there might be some quirky interplay deep in the
device stack leading to false positive RAID detections.

As reported in the original bug, I am running Kubuntu 9.10 rc 64-bit on
intel quad core machine and an intel x25-m ssd. (I don't think this is
one of the infamous intel SSD bugs because an alternative OS ran w/o
problems)
