I have AMD too, vanilla kernel 2.6.27.6 and kvm-79 (although I have this before 79). the guest is SMP (UP guests hang too but less frequent). depmod does not hang here (not reproducible). Heavy CPU + heavy IO on nfs mounts triggers this on my side. I have a very subjective feeling that it happens more frequently when the host has less uptime (freshly rebooted). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
