        This morning I wanted to edit an ISO to instruct the kernel to redirect its
        output to serial.
        
        i.e 
        
        # sudo vnconfig -v -c /dev/vn0 5.3-BETA1-i386-miniinst.iso
        # sudo mount -t cd9660 -o rw /dev/vn0 /mnt
        # sudo tcsh
        # echo "/boot/loader -h" > boot.config
        boot.config: Read-only file system.
        
        Forget the afforementioned error. 
        
        The problem that I have is now when I issue a df(1) my shell hangs: 
        
        e.g.
        
        # df -h
        ^C^C^D
        ^C^C^D
        
        # ps -aux | grep df 
        username 3333  0.0  0.0   212   96  p2  D+    9:04AM   0:00.00 df -h
        username 3332  0.0  0.0   212   96  p1  D+    9:04AM   0:00.00 df -h
        
        # kill -9 3333 3332
        
        # ps -aux | grep df
        username 3333  0.0  0.0   212   96  p2  D+    9:04AM   0:00.00 df -h
        username 3332  0.0  0.0   212   96  p1  D+    9:04AM   0:00.00 df -h
        
        No change.
        
        I'm not sure what has hung here, nor am I sure how to 'un-hang' my shell.
        
        Any thoughts anyone ?

To follow up to my own question, an NFS server not responding .... DOH !
