Yeah.. that test is still in the latest 2.4.xx reiserfs, too.

Stuff like that scares me: the filesystem code should NEVER panic and halt the kernel, and there's way too much of it in reiserfs.

My guess is that it is having trouble with your fids directory, right? You know, the place with upwards of 4000 entries.. it doesn't suprise me that (2.2.xx) resierfs might croak on something like that.

Perhaps I'll move Hijack into the 2.4.xx kernel stream someday.. gotta get the latest patches from the Rio folks for that, though. Rob/Hugo?
