	Subject: backgroud fsck is still locking up system

	Just rebuilt -current this morning. Background fsck is still
	causing a "soft lockup". I thought the conclusion was we were
	going to disable it for 5.0.

	Not trying to rush anyone, just pointing out that this
	still needs to be done..

What do you mean by background fsck causing a "soft lockup"?
Is it failing? Is it deadlocking the system? Do you have a
specific test case that shows the problem? Needless to say
it is working fine on my system and on my regression tests.
The only problem that I am having with 5.0 as of last night
is getting login to work on my console.
