Hmmm, that wasn't the problem I built those kernels to fix so it seems
you have a separate issue.  They eliminated the hangs when unmounting
filesystems.

I know my systems will hang hard early in boot if I boot with acpi=on,
but I have little need for ACPI so it's not a big deal for me to leave
it off.  This kernel has no effect on that problem for me.  I haven't
tried to debug things further.

Sorry, no idea.  Can you get anything out of the kernel via Alt-SysRQ?

Hmm, I'm running SuperMicro X5DPE-G2 boards, dual Xeon 2.80GHz with
4GB of RAM.  Perhaps we're seeing something similar.  The last kernel
message I see is a message about disk quotas.  I'll have to play with
one of them to see if I can make anything happen.

Sorry, I've got my hands full but I do have a full mirror so I could
try an upgrade.  It's pretty certain that with those kernels you'll
see an entirely different set of problems.  I doubt you can run the
kernels without upgrading the whole system, but I'll try to build
what's in rawhide now and see.

Later: Nope, I can't seem to build kernel-2.6.5-1.309; it dies trying
to do "make nonint_oldconfig" because there's no target in the
Makefile for it.  Hmmm.
