Again how do you kill a cp in UNINTERRUPTIBLE SLEEP !!!
I'll repeat myself: "The only way to get rid of these processes is to
wait or reboot."
Pardon my stupidity, if you can observe ot determine the process number for
the cp operation it appears one could use 'kill' and one of its options to
remove the process.
And I will repeat myself again: You _cannot_ kill a process in
uninterruptible sleep. Only way to get rid of this is to wait for it to
finish, or reboot the system. If you could interrupt it (sending SIGKILL
is a type of interruption), it wouldn't be called uninterruptible sleep
would it?

FINE..then REBOOT the darn thing and quit wasting time ..!!
