Hello, I'm sorry to bother you, but you may not be aware of this thread and this problem. We are several people experiencing deadlocks, kernel panics and other problems when creating sanpshots on file systems with SU+J. It would be nice to get some feedback, e.g. how can we help debugging and / or fixing this problem.
Thank you,
Yamagi
