Bug Description
Binary package hint: debian-installer
Filing against d-i since I've been working with cjwatson on the iSCSI installer bits.
I've performed a root on iSCSI install from the network using the latest netboot image. The install completes and I am able to start booting into the installed environment.
After the IP config and iscsistart succeeds, I get the following:
* Setting preliminary keymap...
* Starting iSCSI initiator service iscsid
[ ###.######] INFO: task kjournald2:347 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[ ###.######] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/
[ ###.######] INFO: task sync:606 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
[ ###.######] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/
Those two tasks bounce back and forth and nothing ever happens from there.

Might this affect open-iscsi instead?
What can be done to get this fixed in time for release? Or will the line about root on iSCSI being supported need to be stricken from the Release Notes?
