Indexing as suggested in 'REPORTING-BUGS'.
[1.] One line summary
I get "kernel BUG at inode.c:486" when using NFS.
[2.] Full description
I can reproducibly generate a problem when I try to build a kernel,
located on a NFS drive. The kernel build failes when compiling the first
source; the kernel logs 'kernel BUG at inode.c:486!'. The message is
apparently generated because inode->i_data.nrpages is unexpectedly
non-zero in linux/fs/inode.c The problem has occurred on kernel 2.4.5,
and also on kernel 2.4.5-pre4. I didnt get it on kernel 2.4.5-pre3.
Almost any other things on the same NFS drive seem to work fine.
[3.] keywords
kernel bug, inode, nfs

Since I dont think the kernel messages after the 'kernel BUG' message is
really is really interesting anymore, I did nothing to decode them. On
request, I will.
