Sorry there isn't much info here. This happened about 30s after the first
boot on this kernel and I haven't been able to get it to do it again.
I've applied the fs/inode.c patch and SMP is off. e2fsprogs 1.09.

This is from /System.map. I hope it's the right line:
c0124644 t __wait_on_inode

I can probably supply more info if it would be helpful.
