Just built a new Dual-Xeon server, Intel motherboard ... put 4.11-RELEASE onto it, and I'm getting an odd behaviour that I'm wondering if anyone can give me a suggestion on where to look / investigate ... Mainly, it looks like after a period of time (not very long), commands just stop running ... For instance, I'm running cvsup to update my source tree (hoping that its just a bad kernel) and on another console, I login and do a 'ps aux', which just hangs there ... on a third console, I can login and still do a df at the same time as that ps is hanging, but if I then do a ps, that console hangs ... if I then go to the 4th console, it hangs while logging in ... I can get to a DDB prompt, but not sure what I can provide from there that may be useful ... Thoughts? Thanks ... ---- Marc G.

Oh, and before anyone asks why I'm not running something more recent ... 4.11 is the last stable release that has a working unionfs ... so I'm kinda stuck there right now ...

Worth a try I think... -ip -- Beauty is only skin deep, ugly goes clear to the bone.
