One small suggestion that might prove helpful, at least in understanding just
what is happening. Before you run the update do an 'open csh', this will give
you an alternate hft session from where you can run ps and such to see just
what stage things are at when it "hangs". You might also try and run newkernel
manually and see if it can successfully build a kernel.
