It hangs on the last 2 or 3 services (few seconds before the login).
I've checked /var/log/messages, but the freeze doesn't leave any trace.
There's no error... the log simply stops when the system hangs. And the
log seem very similar to the 2.6.14-rc4-rt1 one which boots correctly
although sometime gives me some errors.

Well, I simply make an oldconfig upon a well functioning 2.6.14-rc4
vanilla kernel. I've read each new voice and I've ended up answering
always no (except for the "Complete Preemption" choice).

This morning I've tried the rt8 patch and I can't even compile the
kernel! This is the error:
  
  CC      kernel/ktimers.o
kernel/ktimers.c: In function 'check_ktimer_signal':
kernel/ktimers.c:1209: warning: passing argument 1 of
'unlock_ktimer_base' from incompatible pointer type
kernel/ktimers.c:1225: error: 'struct ktimer_base' has no member named
'getoffset'
make[2]: *** [kernel/ktimers.o] Error 1

Maybe today there will be some others releases.
