Yes it does boot. I am using it at this time and these boot errors were
seen about three weeks ago with a 2.6.7 version. At first I figured I
was compiling something wrong but after numerous other attempts and
running diags on the hardware (not to mention continuous use as my
desktop system for the last two weeks) I am at the current stage of
flummox.
