I tried to update an amd64 FreeBSD 9.0 p0 system via freebsd-update =
tonight.  It fetched everything fine.  However, the install just hung =
after about 10 minutes.  The 2 sh processes are basically doing nothing. =
 Not consuming any processor time and not doing any I/O.  I killed it =
and tried another install.  Same thing.  Tried a rollback.  Same thing.  =
The system still runs mostly.  Top takes about 5 minutes before it =
produces any output.  It shows basically nothing running.  I really =
don't want to reinstall again as the system has a lot of files =
customized including many ports.  Is there any way to recover this?
