Check bug #5038 to see if sounds familiar. > http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5038 Interresting bug report. You have to know that the machine (nForce2 based) that have the ntpd problem is NFS root and import via NFS several mount points. In fact this machine don't have any hard disk and make everything over NFS. ( This way, with a passiv water cooling and passiv power supply I enjoy an absolutly silent dektop. ) I have an other machine (VIA based) with a kernel 2.6.12 that is NFS root the same way but don't have the ntpd problem. -- Jean-Christian de Rivaz - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
