I know that, but I'd like to change to singleuser mode like before.

No, I had running a kernel with the new statfs changes without any problems.
It's smoething shortly changed after the statfs changes. I'm very sure!

Yes, that's what I meant. Sorry if that wasn't clear.
These lines show up while booting

Give setiathome a try! You'll be astonished. And I'm sure the difference I 
_feel_ isn't dependend on kde. If you don't like kde replace it with our 
favourite wm/desktop. But you won't be able to play two mid to high-quality 
mpegs at the same time on a 1GHz machine where 4BSD scheduler does very well!

I haven't claimed ULE to be unstable though. I just wanted to highlight some 
issues which will be a big problem if 5.2-releas will have ULE as default!
