I applied the 2.1.123 pre-patch to 2.1.124pre2 with the result that I saw the
following during boot (copied by hand):
(scsi0:0:4:0) Parity error during Data-In Phase
scsi0 channel 0 : resetting for second half of retries
SCSI bus is being reset for host 0 channel 0.
scsi : aborting command due to timeout: pid 23, scsi0, channel 0, id 4, lun 0
Read (6) 15 50 00 02 00
The boot process stopped at this point; <ctl-alt-del> lead to a successful
reboot.
Unit 4 is a CD-ROM as shown from dmesg (using a kernel without your patch):

It was at this point that the failed boot hung.
Please let me know if there's anything I can do...
