Interesting. I have ext2fs partitions in the same size range for the
same purpose under 8-CURRENT and I don't have the problems you
described, so it's unlikely the problem were introduced in 7. Did you
run e2fsck on the file systems? Can you verify there is no hardware or
driver data corruption (though I don't know how would you verify this
one - maybe by writing to the partition from one OS and reading from the
other, amd using md5 to check)?
