Re: 2.6.25-rc2 + smartd = hang
Hi! So that's using the old IDE drivers. And the network and USB are sharing IRQ#11 with each other. If you are going to be using newer kernels like this (2.6.23+), then you might consider shifting those drives over to libata drivers. Yes, that will probably fix it for him, but but... maybe we should fix that regression?

Using sysrq-e I noticed a callpath open - ext3 - journals - sync_buffer - io_scheduel - generic_unplig_device. I'd guess the open stems from smartd. Removing smartd from the startup, I'm now using rc2 fine... I got a nice jpg showing it as well. The sysrq-e output is probably just standard ext3 journalling unrelated to the problem... what does dmesg say? lspci? What's your hardware setup?
