Barry, I found the reason the perm changes would not take is more basic...  you
can't change perms on a mount point while something is mounted there.  Also, the
bug report was the "hang", not the inability to change perms (that was
background info)... 

Sorry about my thinking the HD was clicking -- on a laptop, it's hard to
differentiate between the HD and the floppy when there is no LED on the floppy
and the HD access LED on the keyboard comes on when this hang occurs.   HTH

description: 
Was trying to change permissions on /mnt/camera as root and they would not take.
 So I issued "lsattr /mnt" and the command hung -- unable to kill with Ctrl+c. 
Attached strace to process and it too could not be killed.  Had to issue "kill
-9 PID" to kill it.

It was obvious something was wrong as soon as I issued the lsattr command... it
sounded like my HD heads were being parked/landed continuously -- about once per
second...  (ext3 filesystem)
