I did see some SIO..... type error whiz by during boot. I had the
/etc/init.d/network script in verbose mode and it occured after the
'route add -host 127.0.0.1 lo' line. Thanks for taking a peek at this.
Is there any way to trap all the output of the boot scripts to a log
file? This would be really useful as people migrate to the 2.2.x
kernels and have to debug boot scripts.
