Oh, now I am totally confused. I reverted your fix from https://www.redhat.com/archives/utrace-devel/2010-January/msg00006.html and now there is nothing in dmesg. I decided to re-test this all with vanilla 2.6.33-rc2. It is really amazing how long it takes to recompile/install the kernel! I spent the rest of this day fighting with this rhts machine. Result - it doesn't boot: 00: zIPL v1.8.2-5.el6 interactive boot menu 00: 00: 0. default (2.6.33-rc2) 00: 00: 1. 2.6.33-rc2 00: 2. 2.6.32.2-14.s390x.el6.s390x 00: 3. 2.6.32.2-14.el6.s390x 00: 4. linux 00: 00: Note: VM users please use '#cp vi vmsg <input>' 00: 00: Please choose (default will boot in 15 seconds): 00: Booting default (2.6.33-rc2)...

Using /usr/bin/console I can't choose another kernel at the "00: Please choose (default will boot in 15 seconds):" stage, how can I do this???
