If I have CONFIG_SLUB_DEBUG set, then box boots fine. If I don't have it
set, then it hard hangs sometime after boot:

[...]
ReiserFS: sda2: Using r5 hash to sort names

Freeing unused kernel memory: 180k freed

which is usually followed by messages bringing up the network link, etc.
Let me know which tests you want run, or which patches to try.
