Things are now in a sort of usable state but not to where we need to be, I
assure everyone it's still being worked on.  I really would
encourage people to pull from non-master mirrors:

In the meantime continue to send feedback to the list, it is helpful and
helps validate the things we're seeing.  There's a lot of things that
changed in the last week including new disk trays, resulting in a
completely new snapmirror, new mount points, etc, etc.  We're also working
to get our other mirrors back online (we normally have 3 and are down to
1...  well more like .5 at the moment.)

Thanks for your patience.
