 This should be fixed now (r29027, tested with Linux 2.6.35).

  I still get this hang unless I set elevator=noop at boot. Using
 linuxPackages_2_6_39.


I also ran into this issue today with both linuxPackages_2_6_39 and
linuxPackages_2_6_38_ati

My data point: Linux 3.0.4, broken before the fix, works now.

I imagine that putting that CFQ into the kernel will make all work. Isn't that
an acceptable option?
