Last night I removed the BE's after kernel a4e1558c05 and tried to do an update.
after updating to the latest kernel I rebooted the machine and left for the evening to see if it would boot after a very long time. This morning I was pleasantly surprised to find a log on screen, and was able to log on to the computer, but it appeared to be sluggish. Knowing that it did boot I decided to boot the latest kernel with the verbose option ... and it all booted, slowly, but with no noticeable differences to a normal boot (with the exception of "network/location Method or service timed out" after about 5 minutes. after booting it appeared to be sluggish again, so i ran an "iostat -zxc 5" and noticed that my hard disk was running with 100% blocking most of the time, with very low disk usage. I started some applications (gedit, firefox, thunderbird ...) firefox and thunderbird were essentially unusable, gedit was just about able to open and save files. I would really like to be able to upgrade and look at the kvm code, and am happy to give any information/logs that are needed.
