kernel BUG at inode.c:564

[Jules Colding]

Hi,

I don't know if this is/was a known issue, but I got a kernel panic when
I tried to install, rh9 on my new machine (I have send this mail to the
rh list too). This happened while doing a harddisk install from
/dev/hda5 (fat - partitioned and formatted by W2K). 

My hardware is:
Asus A7V600 Via KT600 DDR400 AGP x8
1 AMD Athlon Thoroughbred  XP 2000+ (1667 MHz)
2 Seagate Barracuda 80GB (ST380011A), 7200RPM, 2MB 
1 Kingston 512 MB DDR-RAM PC32000 400 MHz KVR400X64C3
1 Nvidia GeForce4 MX 440-8X, 128MB DDR

Both Seagates are at IDE1. I have installed W2K on hda and was trying to
install rh9 on hdb as a dual boot. I have a fat partition (hda5) on my
W2K disk. I also have a cdrom on hdc.

I have replicated the entire error screen below:

---------------- CUT ----------------
        /mnt/runtime umount failed (16)

This was the first time I got a kernel panic. The install have stalled
trice before (well into the install). Two times when I tried to install
from cdrom, and one time when I tried the hard disk install from the
same partition. I have checked the media and the isos. They all PASS.

So, is there some solution to this problem?

Thanks in advance,
