Just one local mount frozen....

[Willem Jan Withagen]

Sorry to report, but the girlfriend switched the system off this morning.
It is a Compaq rackserver with a lot of fans and they are bussing around here
head.

But since I want to complete one set of tests with this kernel, I is likely to
occur again.
It was already running for 3 days, and will need to run for 2 more days.
Fortunately it is restartable :)
