I have found lately that reboot hangs while syncing disks.
Sync itself does not hang when used. The only mitigating point that I
can offer is that the Sun4/260 in question is running close to a full
news feed. I have not yet trying rebooting it shortly after a reboot
to see if what it's running affects it.
The machine is running a sup that succeeded just shortly
before 1.1 (by a day or two). I have been afraid to upgrade since ---
since I need to carry forward a number of patches to keep going ---
but that technology should soon be ready.
Dave.
