>Description:
	Doing tests again using LFS filesystem, I observed that sometimes,
	LFS doesnt work, most of all when I'm trying to copy enough MBs/GBs.
	I was copying a 1GB directory into an LFS partition (in /home) and
	the copy was stopped with the next message from the LFS:

	# cp -fRP /foo /home/foo
	ino 909 bytes == 0 offset 5373952

	The syste was not stopped, not halted, just that console was
	died. I broke into the kernel DDB to see what's happening, I
	did Ctrl+Alt+Esc (i386) to see any crash but DDB didn't tell
	me about a crash, it showed:

	Stopped at netbsd:cpu_Debugger+0x4: pop %ebp
	internal_command(...) at netbsd:internal_command+0x15c
	wskbd_translate(...) at netbsd:....
	wskbd_input(...) at netbsd:...
	pckbd_input(...) at ....
	pckbcintr(...) at...
	Xintr_ioapic_edge1() at ...
	--- interrupt ---
	netbsd:cpu_switch+0x02:
	db{0}>

	I gess that above means that nothing wrong is happening, so
	I typed *continue* in the DDB and I could continue using
	my system but the console where 'cp' command was; I pressed
	again Ctrl+Alt+Esc and tried with *sync* and I got this:

	db{0}> sync
	syncing disks... kernel: page fault trap, code=0
	stopped at netbsd:lfs_seglock+0x46: movl 0x34(%ecx),%eax

>How-To-Repeat:
	Make a LFS partition, mount it, try to copy a directory
	with near 1GB or so, and you'll get the 'ino ...' message.
	
>Fix:
	Dont know.
