As expected, the shutdown procedure got stuck: Stopping cron Stopping inetd [hung] I waited about fifteen minutes then hit the hard reset switch. Afterward, the RAID configured and the parity re-write was almost instantaneous. 'fsck -yf' revealed no faults. At this point I rebooted again and booted a -current kernel which has the proposed fix for kern/55115. The issue appears to be fixed and I've asked that it be pulled up to netbsd-9. -- |/"\ John D.
