I am not sure how to debug this but it apears that
in 2.5.3-pre1 and in 2.5.2-dj1 DEVFS is not working. It started by terminals hanging and not being able to shutdown.
I went to /dev/ and did a ls, it compleatly hangs that terminal and I cannot kill ls.
I have the devfsd version from debian 1.3.21 .

I run into that inability to shutdown occationally. There is an easy fix though:

kill -SIGUSR1 1
This is the documented way of dealing with a
remounted /dev. shutdown, init, telinit
work normally after that. Unless there
are other errors of course.
