How do you know that the corruption was caused by 2.6.21-rc1 ?
Isn't it possible that the corruption was created by an earlier
kernel, but only detected when a forced fsck was run - which just
happened to be while you were running 2.6.21-rc1 ...

My point is that, as far as I can see, there's nothing tying
2.6.21-rc1 specifically to this corruption... or?
