My previous message didn't go to the list because the attachment was too big.

I've devised a test case that causes the ReiserFS v3 driver to access random 
memory and cause big problems (Oops and a clean shutdown is impossible).  The 
test case is a file system that was freshly fsck'd so it indicates a bug in 
reiserfsck and the kernel code.

The file system image is on http://www.coker.com.au/bug/reiser3.bz2
