 I believe I'm running into a similar problem. I have a
 Maxtor 40GB IDE disk split into 2 slices. The first slice
 is 1GB with swap and root(/) in it and the second has a
 single 38GB file system. I created everything when I
 installed 3.3 on the system (Athlon, all ide devices)
 and the install worked without errors. After reboot,
 the large FS showed mounted but I couldn't write to it.
 I got "bad file descriptor". So, I unmounted and tried
 to remount. First try, mount segfaulted. Second try,
 I got back to "bad file descriptor".
 
 I would rate this as severe since it basically puts
 the machine out of commission. I had planned on adding
 more 40GB drives hoping to take advantage of FreeBSD's
 large file support/NFSV3. 
 
 On a side note, the drive worked fine under Linux kernel
 2.2.5 from RH6.0 so I know it is healthy. 
 
 If someone has some ideas on how to debug/test a fix,
 please let me know.
 
 Thanks.
