After I started using overlayfs i realized that my backup based on LVM snapshots made the system "go mad". As described in the manual I tried the kernel from 13.10 (3.11.0-xx) with the same result. A test against main line does not help, since it does not include the overlayfs support. I tested the behaviour on a server as well as in a VirtualBox environment with the same result: lvcreate -s -n backup -L512M /dev/VG/NAME hangs and does not come back. This issue is easy reproducable: sudo mkdir /mnt/test /mnt/delta sudo mount -t overlayfs -o lowerdir=/usr,upperdir=/mnt/delta overlayfs /mnt/test sudo lvcreate -s -n backup -L512M /dev/xubuntu-vg/root -> Hang df@feretti-virt:~$ uname -r 3.13.0-29-generic df@feretti-virt:~$ cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 3.13.0-29.53-generic 3.13.11.2 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: linux-image-3.13.0-29-generic 3.13.0-29.53 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-29.53-generic 3.13.11.2 Uname: Linux 3.13.0-29-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.2 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: Error: command ['fuser', '-v', '/dev/snd/by-path', '/dev/snd/controlC0', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0c', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p', '/dev/snd/pcmC0D1c', '/dev/snd/seq', '/dev/snd/timer'] failed with exit code 1: Date: Tue Jun 10 18:02:13 2014 HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=6e68761a-6768-4e19-9c4e-f188538d6068 InstallationDate: Installed on 2014-02-18 (112 days ago) InstallationMedia: Xubuntu 13.10 "Saucy Salamander" - Release amd64 (20131016) Lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 80ee:0021 VirtualBox USB Tablet Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub MachineType: innotek GmbH VirtualBox ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcFB: 0 VESA VGA ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-3.13.0-29-generic root=/dev/mapper/xubuntu--vg-root ro quiet splash vt.handoff=7 PulseList: Error: command ['pacmd', 'list'] failed with exit code 1: No PulseAudio daemon running, or not running as session daemon.
