Sam,
I don't see anything in the journal or in the output of "smartctl -a /dev/sda3".
Would you like to see the output of the above command?
I have done several group installs on the fresh VM... and tested blkid after each. No problems found...
There are a few "George" changes but they're minor. I can start doing them and testing after each if that sounds like a good idea.
Regards,
George...

I assume this on the host system, not the VM. blkid is trying to seek
somewhere near the end of the swap partition and getting stuck. That is
a very strange call to get stuck on. Are there any messages in the
journal? Check the SMART status of your hard drive.
