Was FTP'ing a 2.5MB file over the LAN to my FreeBSD system onto the DOS filesystem. Got about 50% into it, then decided to pull a directory listing on the directory (/mnt/tmp). 1. Never got a response -- cursor just hung under the command line. 2. Could not kill the ls process from another xterm. 3. Tried to umount /mnt and locked up my last xterm. 4. Switched to a system console (Alt-Ctrl-F1) and entered my login name at a waiting getty. Pressed Enter and cursor locked on the next line. 5. Hit Alt-F4 to get back to X to see if anything changed, and at that point, the whole system became unresponsive at the console. 6. Could not telnet over the LAN to it. 7. Had to do a hard reset.
