Hello,
I'm sorry to bother you, but you may not be aware of this thread and
this problem. We are several people experiencing deadlocks, kernel
panics and other problems when creating sanpshots on file systems
with SU+J. It would be nice to get some feedback, e.g. how can we
help debugging and / or fixing this problem.
Thank you,
Yamagi
