The 2.6.21 kernel is hanging during the post boot phase where various 
daemons are being started (not always the same daemon unfortunately).

This problem was not present in 2.6.21-rc7 and there is no oops or other 
unusual output in the system log at the time the hang occurs.

My .config file is attached.
