Shortly after mounting the corrected file system the syetm died with a 'mangled entry' panic. After this panic, fsck every time reports the file system to be okay, while after accessing a certain directory on this filesystem you would get the same panic again. This all took place on a 2.0.5 system with Terry's patch applied to fsck. I've made a dump (with dd) of the particular filesystem. It is 800MB big and, because it contains rather sensitive data I cannot give it away. I am planning to vnconfig the raw image and then run fsdb on it. If anyone has suggestions on what to look for... I've seen other people reporting this bug so I first like to know if something has been fixed in this area. (e.g. look with the search engine in the stable mailiong list for ccd and fsck). -Guido
