Apparently some thread was now stuck so going into single-user or even controlled reboot no longer worked; I had to hit the big switch. Unkillable processes were e.g. chrony (ntp server) and NFS. Any insights? The box is rock solid otherwise, and the only thing out of the ordinary is that it's running the latest BFS, which so far has not shown to be a problem in any way, on multiple machines. thanks, Holger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
