All my backups ran fine last night, so today I come in where I already had a bconsole running, typed "m" and got all the messages,
and then typed "status dir" and the directory instantly crashed.. same thing "Segmentation violation". 

Any suggestions what I should do?

My director just died.  It had been waiting a couple of days for a tape (the sd was on a separate server) and when I issued the mount command after changing the tape, the director instantly died:
06-Apr 12:05 packrat-dir: Fatal Error because: Bacula interrupted by signal 11:
Segmentation violation
There would have been big spool files from the job that was waiting for a tape, but I can't find them.  Is it smart enough to clean up after a director crash?

I'm running 2.2.8, which I know is now over a year old, but it had been running fine and I hadn't seen any new features I would use.  Am I running a version with known problems?    I'd been using fschwarz's RPMs, since I also use Centos, but he is still at 2.4.2.  Are there any reliability problems fixed between 2.4.2 and 2.4 4?

If I do upgrade, I'll probably go to Centos5 and MySQL 5 while I'm at it.  Does that sound like a wise move?
