7.1-RELEASE-p1

FreeBSD server 7.1-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE-p1 #0: Thu Jan 22 11:14:58 MSK 2009     root at server:/usr/obj/i386/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  i386

I have several machines running with identical config:
1. gmirror on two SATA devices
2. single gjournal FS  configured as described under PR #129674 and mounted to root.
3. Periodical night snapshoting with mount -o snapshot

Currently there is stable issue with kernel lock up caused by snapshoting with  mount -u -o snapshot /.snap/snapshot.0 /

After hard reset the PR #129674 comes to scene.
>How-To-Repeat:
Configure FS the way PR #129674 described 

And take snapshots couple times until it locks up.

mount -u -o snapshot /.snap/snapshot.0 /
mount -u -o snapshot /.snap/snapshot.1 /
mount -u -o snapshot /.snap/snapshot.2 /
..
and so on.
