Its a kernel bug if it gets stuck like this. You need to provide more info though - what file system, what devices, how much memory. Also ps can give you the wait address of a process stuck in 'D' state which is valuable for debug - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
