Hi, I've run preclear_disk.sh on a drive. I'm most of the way through. All steps say done but I'm on the "Post-Read in progress: 88% complete" step. It appears as if the console has locked. I cannot see any updates and it's been a little while (over 2 hours). I can see in TOP that the "./preclear_disk.sh /dev/sdi" process is spiking one of my processors with 99% cpu utilization.
Should I wait it out and hope for the best -- or try to kill the process and start over? Attached is my syslog for your review.
