Dunno. But since you mention it, I couldn't find USB cables longer than 
3 meters when I searched for it, and I found cables with amplifiers at 
30 meters. It is reasonable to expect a limit, yeah, but I mean, five 
meters...? :-)

However, I'm pretty sure I saw this problem, before I realized what the 
problems was, without the extension cables.

No, but I did try with, uhm, I think it was test8 (Andreas...?). 
Couldn't get it booted. Tried a few different things, and also a 
non-ruby test9 kernel without success. Seems to die at some APIC 
things. Since Linus seems to actually be soliciting the feedback of J.

I thought I'd wait a few days and give test10 a whirl and tell the 
hackers what I found, 

Best,
