kernel-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 problems

[Jack Howarth]

   Is anyone else having problems with network access
using the new kernel-2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 release? I find
that the boot process hangs at ntpd startup script.
The messages from the kernel show...

which I guess suggests the hang actually occurs in knfsd. There seems to
be no problems with kernel-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6. Thanks in advance for any
advice.
