Latest kernel still hangs?

I really don't have the ability to test the latest kernel on my servers due to location, but the last update prior to the latest one (2.6.5-95 I believe) caused my servers to hang on boot, mainly after try to access the transaction logs on my filesystems. Has anyone tried the latest kernel update on a system that hung before? For noting, my servers are newer DL320 G2 series, with the latest BIOS, with ReiserFS as the filesystem.
