A SATA bug that caused SATA-equipped systems to pause during the boot process and display an error before resuming is now fixed.

rmmod xennet no longer causes domU to crash.
4-socket AMD Sun Blade X8400 Server Module systems that do not have memory configured in node 0 no longer panic during boot.
conga and luci can now be used to create and configure failover domains.

During installation, incorrect SELinux contexts are no longer assigned to /var/log/faillog and /var/log/tallylog.
Installing Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.1 using split installation media (for example, CD or NFSISO) no longer causes an error in the installation of amanda-server.
EDAC now reports the correct amount of memory on the latest k8 processors.
Logging in remotely to a Gnome desktop via gdm no longer causes the login screen to hang.
A bug in autofs that prevented multi-mounts from working properly is now fixed.

Several patches to utrace apply the following fixes:
fixed a bug that causes a crash in race condition when using ptrace
fixed a regression that resulted in erroneous EIO returns from some PTRACE_PEEKUSR calls
fixed a regression that prevented some wait4 calls from waking up when a child exited under certain circumstances
fixed a regression that sometimes prevented SIGKILL from terminating a process. This occurred if ptrace was performed on a process under certain cirtumstances.
A RealTime Clock (RTC) bug that prevented alarms and periodic RTC interrupts from working properly is now fixed.
