SubjectRe: [2/2] 2.6.22-rc4: known regressions v3
Hi All,

They apear as soon as simpleinit starts up. Somtimes I get to a login
prompt before seeing any. Other times, commands in the simpleinit rc
script fail.

They do apear to be random. If a command failes, you re-run the command
and it is OK. Commands seen to fail are basic (depmod, rm cat ..).

The test I did use the same binaries with both the OK and problem kernels
so it is not a change to the application code, it is definatly a kernel
issue.

Regards
Mark Fortescue.
