This looks similar to the symptoms discussed in
http://www.mail-archive.com/linuxppc-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg37042.html, but
that one was believed to be a PPC problem (?!) -> CCing Tejun Heo anyway. 

This bug also reminded me that I was planning to make CONFIG_IPV6=y for all
kernel flavours (Bug #561611). Did that just now. If this really were some kind
of race between IPv6 initialization and the socket syscall (as suggested by Bug
#574463, Comment 9), having IPV6=y will work around this.

Bug #574463, Comment 10:
> I checked the log while booting with 700 MB VM. In that case, the system does
> not try to load ipv6. There must be some kind of free RAM test that skips the
> load. Without IPV6, the load succeeds.

Huh? I really doubt we have any check like that in the installation system. I
will have a look.



I will dig into this more next week.
