No process should ever lock the remainder of the prcesses.
Open another session in one among the (typically 8) virtual
terminals that you have available. Escape back to default
(tty7) and see if the network thingie is done. Oh, wait.
We're not talking about GNU/Linux, are we? It's not a true
multi-user/tasking O/S that's you were using at the time.
Not to mention serialisation, re-prioritising tasks, remote
tasking, multi-threading, etc. Every toy ought to the have
built-in capability to extend into a powerful utility, IMHO.
Best wishes,
Roy
