It is rumoured that Dave J. Boers had the guts to say: I'll leave the system running for a few more hours and then I will enable softupdates again to try if I can reproduce the problems and take a look with DDB. The system has been running with softupdates enabled and DDB in the kernel for

Matt, Like I said, I disabled softupdates on all my filesystems (and added DDB to the kernel). The system has been running 7 hours smoothly now, that's the longest uptime I've had so far with version 1.47 of ffs_softdep.c. I even recreated the directory that I couldn't delete previously and

Everyone, make sure you are using at least version 1.47 of ffs_softdep.c. If you manage (with the latest ffs_softdep.c ... 1.47) to get a lockup and your system still works well enough to run commands, and you were smart enough to keep your kernel.debug lying around, then
