I've upgraded my x86_64 4.2 box to the latest kernel 2.6.9.34 and tried an lvm snapshot. It worked fine and I was able to mount the snapshot etc. Now I cannot seem to remove the snapshot. If I try a 'lvremove' it asks if I want to remove the 'active' snapshot, if I say yes it just hangs and the box goes to 99% wait io, however the disk lights do not come on during this. The lvremove process is not straceable so I've got no idea whats going on with it.

You might want to post a description of your problem on the LVM list. The LVM developers have been good about helping folks out of this sort of jam before.
