2.6.12.5 and others below that to 2.6.10 stall on boot. The problem is
udev.
It stalls between 1 to 3 minutes.
I have the latest
udev
hotplug
klibc
u name it
Something happened about 2.6.11.X and I see others writing about
similar items
The base system is Suse 9.2 and I am beginning to wonder if
there is something that Suse wrote that is interferring w/the boot.
Since they shipped 9.2 with a 2.6.8-24 and there have been a lot
of changes up to 2.6.12.5
In any case the boot stalls just after it prints these two lines
input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard on isa0060/serio0
input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on isa0060/serio4
and about 2 mins + - later it prints this
EXT2-fs warning (device hda6): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem
as ext2
and then continue normal boot
I sent in an ALT SYSREQ P and T trace a few weeks ago
but didnt get an answer.
Am I incorrect in assuming that everything up until the root disk is mounted
is primarily kernel activity? If not then where else can I look.
I can provide any info desired.
Just in case this is Suse related I am going to load 9.3 early next week
and compile 2.6.12.5 on it and see it I encounter the stall problem. I will
post the results from the activity.

Just a data point...
I haven't had any prolems what so ever so far at 18 hrs.
I just installed it yesterday on an Athlon XP 3200+ w a nvida 2 chipset
Distribution is Slackware 10.1
I am running W$ XP Pro under VMware 5 & have interminently heavy NFS
traffic.
I compiled 2.6.12.5 w gcc v3.3.4. Did you by any chance build w gcc v4 ?
Cheers,
