Defragmenting on Beta2

This is a discussion about Defragmenting on Beta2 in the Windows Hardware category; I tried to defragment my NTFS drive last night. After 30minutes it was only 1% complete - which make me ask: Does defragmenting work at all on Beta2? Furthermore - what about hibernation? It hibernates all right, but freezes during reboot, when the logon screen appears.

When defragmenting make sure you don't have any crap running in the background that has acess to your disc drive.
