Did you try the suggestion by Jack Bowling to disable vfat mounts in
/etc/fstab? Or is that irrelevant to your setup?
ironically, i had a vfat mount in /etc/fstab, but commenting that
out didn't make any difference.
i'm curious *how* it would have made a difference, since from
what i can see, any mounting of vfat filesystems doesn't occur
until later on in the boot process.
very strange.
at this point, i'm trying to clarify how to move over from
/etc/modules.conf to /etc/modprobe.conf cleanly, since that
appears to be the next obvious step with a 2.6.0 kernel.

p.s. got samba-3.0.0 beta up and verified a simple smbmount.
so far, so good.
