#cp -Rv . /mnt

/dos is a vfat mounted Win95, every other partition is ext2

/mnt was a loopback filesystem on /usr with about 140 MB. The loopback was
formatted as ext2, too.

Hmm - I would not test with the loop device and then
attribute a hang to the Adaptec driver...

Perhaps it is a low-level problem with the aic7xxx driver? A lot of people
seem to have problems with occosional hangs and the Adaptec 2940 controller.
