There could be a deadlock or an Oops occurring. Since you're running a GUI and the system is locking up in the manner it is, it's tough to debug.
The first time I was in gnome; later on, I always tested in runlevel 3. I will attach my report as a file. The gist of it: nothing.
If you can reproduce this at will, could you do so in console mode after running dmesg -n 8 ; klogconsole -r 0
No output at all. The cp command simply stops copying, cpu goes iddle.
please do a alt+sysrq+t to dump the states of the processes on the system. If something is stuck in a deadlock, we should be able to see it.
No output at all. Don't we need to enable first sysrq somehow?
The best way to capture this info is with a serial console, but if you're unable to set one up - a photo of the Oops will do. If there's sysrq+t output, that's going to be more difficult to capture in its entirety.
Serial port would be possible (if you point me to a howto, including pinout of serial cable), but I don't think it is necessary, the system doesn't crash till I try to umount or access the affected filesystem. I can read the log, do dmesg, cat /proc/something, etc. However, there is no message anywhere.
