I think my issue is a bit different -- the FS is the only thing  
locked up, and only the single FS that mksnap_ffs is running on.  The  
rest of the system continues to run quite nicely as long as the  
process doesn't attempt to access the locked file system.  In my case  
it has been the home directory partition, which is easy to avoid if  
you're root.

I don't observe ethernet timeouts, etc.
