I can't even ^C out of the umount command:

# umount /vm/domainhere/proc
^C^C^C^C^C

Load on the server is neglible, so it isn't like I'm dealing with 'server 
lag':

# uptime
  4:11PM  up 43 days, 17:09, 7 users, load averages: 3.06, 3.80, 5.69

This only affects my two machines using vinum for RAID5 ... my hardware 
RAID machines, I've never seen this happen on :(

I'm running an 'older' version of 4.x here, but not *really* old:

 	FreeBSD 4.10-STABLE #7: Thu Oct  7 20:17:02 ADT 2004

help?
