- You are using the correct version for Release 2.1.

- The machine likely hangs a little bit later, rather then when it
- patches the kernel. The most likely cause is that you have your
- machine configured as part of a NetInfo network, and its trying to
- bind to a netinfo master on the network. Ensure that this is not
- the case, and thinks will likely work better.
