- About 3 times out of 5, upon bootup on 0.97pl2, sock_init (when
- intializing the AF_UNIX sockets; I haven't installed the tcpip patches)
- hangs the system and I have to reboot. This usually happens about
- 15 seconds after sock_init's message appears on the screen; possibly
- whatever comes after sock_init (the next message to be displayed if it
- _doesn't_ hang is the partition table) is what's actually hanging.
- Has anyone had similar problems? Should we look at this part of the code
- to make sure that nothing's wrong with it?
-
- This is a 386sx with 4 megs ram; 213 meg IDE drive partitioned
- with 3 Linux partitions and 1 (small) DOS partition.
-
- I'm gonna upgrade to pl4 in a few minutes if anyone thinks this will
- help, tell me.
