And yes /bin/ls --color=tty hangs. In fact, I changed it to color=auto and THAT hangs as well. I changed the ls alias to be just 'ls' and that works fine for all directories that were hanging before. But now, ls -l hangs too. Man, this is weird.
Both colorizing the names based on the file type and getting the file metadata for a long listing require reading each file's inode, whereas 'ls' showing only the name requires only reading the directory data.

If that's the case then "ls -l" should also hang. Does it?

poc


ls -l /does/ hang in those cases, /with/ and /without/ the color option. However, the hang is different. With ls --color=tty the hang locks the entire ssh session. Whereas I can CTRL+C out of the ls -l hang.

So you think this is inode/disk related?
