Interesting... I observed something roughly similar on a dual G4
the other day associated with a 30s to 1mn pause during boot. RCU
was complaining loudly.

In my case, it did continue booting normally, is that the case for you ?

Also if I compile the kernel without CONFIG_SMP, it did go away as well,
do you observe that too ?

I don't have a spare cycle to investigate this problem this week I'm
afraid, it might help if you could try a bisection though.

Cheers,
Ben.
