by I've jumped from Kernel 2.0.35 to 2.1.125 (reason: 2.0.35 that came
with RedHat 5.1 would not compile without a lot of hassling for the
sound cards).
Now I am generally pleased with 2.1.125 but I've noticed a really weird
behavior during boot. The machine completely stops doing everything
at the following section of boot:
eth0: Setting Rx mode to 1 addresses.
It will stay that way until I hit the <Enter> key and then it will go
on it's merry way. I've noticed this on 2 different machines. Any
ideas as to why?
