Thanks for your help! -- George I got the same question. I was trying to update RPi this week, but several attempts has failed. RPi would hang at high load like "portsnap fetch extract" or "cd /usr/ports/graphics/graphviz && make install clean". By "hang" I mean ssh session and console had no response. But it still replies to ICMP and TCP connection handshake requests. Looks like something got stuck in the kernel. I am falling back to image built as of 19 July. So far it looks stable enough. That's is before switching to AEABI, recent VM changes, and llvm still having problem building some ports. Regards, Jia-Shiun.
