I've been getting lots of long 'pauses' when accessing nfs exports off a slug
running Debian-arm. It seems worse when reading rather than writing to the
exports (from another Debian box).
Where can I get the 2.6.18-4-ixp4xx kernel package to see if it fixes my
problems too? I can only see my current 2.6.18-3-ixp4xx image at the moment
(through apt).
