It may have made it better for me, it's hard to tell.

I did a fresh pull, re-applied the patch, and tried again with
init=/bin/sh and it booted to the shell prompt... which then hung when I
did "ls -l /".

If I let it boot normally, init announces itself, gives a spurious
warning about a fstab field (which it's been doing for a while, my fault
but harmless), then hangs.

I'm doing x86-64 SMP.
