Greeting!
Let's see if I can make me clear:

I'm having problems with a server, and as long as I read out here, the problem seems to be related with ext3 and kernel-2.6.24.x.
Well, the system is using ext3, and gentoo-sources-2.6.24-r3 (or r8, it's not so simple to figure out).

The bug report, caught through dmesg output is:

Code:

What I saw on a forum somewhere, is that this behaviour could been pushed by updatedb routine, issued by cron.
As you could see, that report above was the forth Oops occurred since the server started. I've disabled updatedb cron job to see if it turns stable and give me time to update the kernel, as it seems to be a solution.



Well, I'm reporting this to colect some feedback, experience comments and this kind of stuff from you.
Thanks for the attention.

The kernel version is kind of strange.
Code:
Pid: 5196, comm: rsync Tainted: G      D (2.6.24-L-Series_OS #1)


The process caused core dump seems to be related to rsync.

It's helpful if you post "emerge --info".

Yes, the kernel name is customized for this custom gentoo.. nothing that interferes significantly..

The emerge --info:

Code:

To update the report, the bug ocurred 4 more times since i've posted, but it seems that updatedb has been executed again because I've only chmod -x'ed the scripts, w/o removing them from cron.daily and cron.weekly. Now i've removed, and tomorrow could see if the bug apears again..
