Which kind of problems with nbd, that just the system hangs and no disk IO 
takes place any more? Kernel is still pingable but it happens nothing 
more? There are problems with the default cfq scheduler in the kernel, 
elevator=noop did the thing for me and nbd works without problems in my 
environment ...

Ciao,
