2.5.[9-13] isn't booting on my hardware (8 proc numaq).  It hangs during boot. 
 The last message on the console is "INIT:".  If I don't define 
CONFIG_MULTIQUAD, it boot.  But without CONFIG_MULTIQUAD I only have 4 procs.

I've put printks in the kernel but haven't gotten any closer to a solution 
(cpu_idle() is called), also have tried kdb but it didn't help (it said that 
the processes had no stack frame).  If you have any suggestions for where to 
go now in debugging this issue I'd greatly appreciate it.

Has anyone else had troubles with 2.5.[9-13] hanging during boot?

My config for 2.5.13 is attached.
