to the newest kernel form rawhide and the system freezes during startup at
binging eth0 stage. Keyboard and mouse doesn't respond only caps-lock and sroll
lock lights are flashing.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.21-1.3149.fc7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update to kernel-2.6.21-1.3149.fc7
2. Reboot

Additional info:
The system works ok with earlier kernels (3142 and below)

The problem still exists in build 3163.

Comment 2 Nikos Charonitakis 2007-05-24 09:16:44 UTC
I have a similar problem with latest kernel 2.6.21-1.3194.fc7.
System hangs with caps lock on at the stage "Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting
the kernel". In previous versions i had no freezes at boot time.
