I was interested in the contents of the files in /proc/fs/reiserfs/sda1,
so I did these commands:

cd /proc/fs/reiserfs/sda1
grep . *

(I like using the grep . * because it labels the contents of each file
with the filename.)

I did this as a regular user and also as root.  Both times the system
crashed and immediately rebooted.  I tried it again as root and the
system froze instead.

The system is basically RedHat 9.  The kernel was compiled with GCC
3.2.2.  I attached a compressed lsmod and kernel configuration to this
message.

The CPU is an Athlon XP 2000+, the SCSI adapter is a LSI Logic 53c1010
Ultra3 64 bit adapter running on a 32 bit bus.  (lspci output is also
attached.)  The SCSI drive is a Seagate X15.3.

Thanks for looking at this.
