The new kernel is compiled and in the rolling area.
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/i386/updates/security/
http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/5rolling/x86_64/updates/security/
So, it looks like luck is with us, and the web page just wasn't complete.
rpm -qp --changelog kernel-2.6.18-53.1.4.el5.i686.rpm | grep autofs
...
[autofs4] fix race between mount and expire (Ian Kent ) [381071]
...
Accourding to the buzilla entries, this fixes the problem. But if someone
could verity this, that would be very helpful.
Kernel modules are still building so it's not going to go into the regular
release until tomorrow at the earliest even if the kernel works right.
Thanks for everyone's help on this one.
