Hi!
The loop-device is broken in 1.3.79. I have a script which creates a initrd for loading some scsi modules using the nice loop-device. Running this script hangs the linux box in 1.3.78 and 79. I can't do anything useful, seems disk I/O does'nt work any more. The EIP Alt-ScrollLock reports belongs to "hard_idle".
Tried to compile 1.3.79 using drivers/block/ll_rw_blk.c from 1.3.77, now it works :-) Seems there is something wrong with the plug/unplug_device stuff...
