Yes, i did boot every single on. We had this problem where it was the
makefile when i did a similar bisect with Huang Ying, and it is what
prompted me to expand the bisect parameters to v2.6.32. I believe the
email about that is in the mailing list still, and im more than happy
to do any other tests you can think of to test and isolate this bug as
it currently causes a significant issue.

Cheers

William
