I have also found that your patch greatly improves things on my systems.
I had been preparing to try the minilog patch, I ended up trying the
kernel patch since I had the kernel tree installed.

I have booted my systems several times without problem. I had previously
had a boot failure rate of about 50%

Thank you for finding this problem and better yet the solution.
