Am I the only having problems with the loop device (/dev/loopN) using
kernel 2.4.1-ac{9 & 18}?  I built a ac9 kernel and tried to mount an
ISO on /dev/loop0 and the mount command stalled, and all subsequent
mounts on other devices (/dev/sdc, /dev/scd0, etc.) also hung.  I even
tried to kill -9 the mount process but it did not work.  I had the
exact same problem with ac18 yesterday.

Anyone else have this problem, or know of a fix?

Thanks,
Charles Fultz
