PPC64 blades shit themselves in a strange way. Possibly the udev
breakage you mentioned? Hard to tell really if people are going to
go around breaking userspace compatibility ;-(


What version of udev is it running?

That all looks rather bad.


ReiserFS: sda2: Using r5 hash to sort names

Bizarrely-formed pathname.  Does it always do that?


Working one (-git3): http://test.kernel.org/abat/48064/debug/console.log

Same sgio shit. no mention of /dev/console, but it's an error message,
so not unexpected.

Has udev actually attempted to do anything by this stage?

Buggered if I know. I always just turn it off on my machines.

I wasn't seeing anything that spectacular.  It used to be the case that
udev simply hung.  But in rc7-mm1 the symptoms are that incoming ssh
sessions hang, but most other things work OK.

Oh well - Greg has split that tree apart and I shall not be pulling the
more problematic bits henceforth.

OK, may not be that at all ... could be something entirely different.
Just seemed co-incicental to your comments.
