ext3_free_blocks_sb when removing a more than 1GB file

[Stephane Cerveau]

Hello,


I checked the storage that seems to be ok ( check bad block) and I still have the problem.
I did the test on vfat and I don’t have the problem.
I'm using a 2.6.23 kernel ?
When the ext3 fs is considered as stable ?

Sounds like a storage problem; not a filesystem problem, something
to do with the flash behaving badly.
