I too just had these messages. I was running some benchmark programs - bonnie++ and postmark. I misconfigured bonnie++ and had it generate 5 million files. I think that is what did it, though I can't explain it. I am going to try it again to see if I can duplicate it. Anyone have any other explanation why these messages would come up? I am using an Abit KT7A-RAID mother board with a 1.2 GHz Athlon running at 900 MHz, 384 Meg ram.
