Now, when I run mondoarchive, even when I specify -E /swapfile, it deadlocks when it reads /swapfile (which ends up in biggielist.txt). If it matters, I was doing a differential backup. I haven't yet tried a full. The only way to break the deadlock is with the command 'swapoff -a'. Then when mondarchive has gotten past that point, I run 'swapon -a' to reenable swap.
