Or some > other VMware SMB server thingy? Yes. It's the same computer. I use VirtualBox in Windows 7 to boot Linux, which is installed in the same hard drive. Then, in Linux, I use CIFS to have access to the Windows 7 partitions. I captured a log with 'tcpdump', but I don't think it's of any use. It stopped logging at 16:01 but the hang happened after that. It didn't log anything from the problematic 'ls', 'kill -9' and 'umount /mnt/ntfs2'.
