Anyone tested 2.6.27-rc1?

Anyone tested 2.6.27-rc1?

[Matthew Wilcox]

With zx1_defconfig on a dual-processor rx2600 prototype, I get:

VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly.                                   
Freeing unused kernel memory: 336kB freed                                       
Mount failed for selinuxfs on /selinux:  No such file or directory              
INIT: version 2.86 booting                                                      

... and that's it.  I'm trying to do something else, so I'll probably
just revert back to 2.6.26.

I get the same on a zx2000 with 2.6.26  plus a few patches ... I was
planning to debug it today, only the disk in my zx2000 died, and I
need to get that fixed first.

Just to confirm ... 2.6.26 with the zx1_defconfig boots fine ... so it's
something in the 8111 2.6.27 commits that breaks it.

linux-next (2.6.27-rc1-next-20080730) builds and boots on Altix.

I have 2.6.27-rc1 [with 1 patch from linux-next to fix cpumask_of_cpu()
so that my ancient compiler won't bomb out with build errors] running
on Intel tiger (using tiger_defconfig) and HP rx2620 (using zx1_defconfig).
