Hi Mark,

Interesting observation. After above message I rebooted my system
expecting ext3 is corrupted and I shall have to try to recover it
using fsck. Nothing of that sort happened. System just booted fine.

This leaves me wondering why does ext things that Magic number is a 
mismatch while booting using kexec. Is AACRAID returning the write bytes
from the disk after an reset?

Thanks
Vivek
