Installing the following rawhide rpms and recompiling nash fixed the boot hang when activating dmraid on a 2.6.17 kernel: parted-1.7.0-1.i386.rpm parted-devel-1.7.0-1.i386.rpm pyparted-1.7.0-1.i386.rpm # nash (running in test mode).

The thing that still locks up is nash during the dmraid activation sequence. Any other ideas as to how to get nash to work with the new kernel? # nash (running in test mode).
