I have likely the same (or similar) issue with my amd64 box. There are 4 physical cpus x 2 hyper-thread = 8 cores. From time to time it doesn't want to boot due to this issue (looks like a race). My walk-around is to safely reboot. Perhaps the probability of it increases with the number of cores (on the screen there are 10 CPUs listed).. I will try to have a look at it. I've found also issues in compat_linux(8), on 2-core amd64 it works smoothly, on 8-core opendylan (wip/opendylan) can easily panic the kernel in the futex subsystem. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJWGalcAAoJEEuzCOmwLnZsY1AQAKovqQRjcIllAlR8iv5z3qdq /Lt3+wmnRgroi8BYAVFuT915Zsy86Std+l1f0nVhg3lfK+PWVlTVHPf1IFfwVCHZ wRXCrpKC6iXOmXsdIdsKhPm+aJQ1xm9EOmjb9O44rm/b/ekReRVkX4TQ0jh/itZi zyvaJbWyZkuV+rDO9YM2ssA+FCmn8PYCAegHVQiy/peXR1KcOqNLrYKL/weIPx1D aCE9F5DCHSFPtv+zRkIBRcAHYDOzucR6Zx2iXDtWnLyYTIhN+cdzRJC9q5eWzPZu WEaHnAPvb8X+0j17GKFs2DlvjhloP1VC4TOsN1gIJv/6oIx28cJa6MPfo1tHGF/1 VLZVTuIFVS03KxZyJ9/F7H9C8u0f50D8teYBj+txiJvcQAns6cfcUQnxPjaZv34/ GmYF19JoZHZ1b2VGT/pN48Y1LAvzfoVopTGiFWF2wN0QqYJ9E/UsYrmJ+RZPvj7Y Gq0FShlk3++NHucHN315qX9f56+gIypCXDnc2SYkPldg6eVIBIODZHuepuOLEymp Lq3CSzYyZtQM0+N7+Ouc40BfoTGHQAkidQQDi53ticfCVegK0kf7asd50Db6Ao0u Y7VIq/K4QnPfteg9mosrPo0qFV4b2ZQfwAsB1AR3z58PCjhJwr4bNy4odfuB9XEx Y6w9hXK+yy1emQkksi+4 =A6s4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
