cross posting this to -smp and -hackers as it
seems to be a problem there.
for those who are new to the problem, in -stable
we have reports of shutdown now hanging rather
than dropping to single user mode.
I have a dual PIII machine. At 4.2-RELEASE I had
no problems at all. However,
Install:
4.2-RELEASE from CDRom, GENERIC kernel
shutdown now works fine.
4.3-RELEASE from CDRom, GENERIC kernel
shutdown now fails, hangs machine.
It seems I was outa touch with the SMP
idea. The 4.3-RELEASE generic kernel
(without smp) causes the problem so I
won't cross post this to -smp
