freebsd-update - 10.1-RELEASE - frozen on reboot

What is the last thing you see before it hangs? Have you tried booting from an install disc and dropping to a command line and fscking each partition on your disks? Its a little hard to guess what might be wrong based on your post.
 
Does PR 195458 describe what you are seeing? This seems to have popped up for 10.1-RELEASE and the only suggested workaround has been to temporarily disable soft update journaling. I can confirm personally that my one machine that runs without soft update journaling upgraded perfectly fine while a VM I tested with SUJ hung at the "All buffers synced" step. The VM I was able to power cycle and worked like a champ afterwards.

junovitch, yes that is exactly what is happening except I didn't monitor the CPU load, so I don't know where it was during this time.
Quoting the bug report: "the system freezes as the 10.1 system shutdowns for the first time. After All buffers synced."

Machine specs:
Windows 7 x64 host machine running VMWare Workstation 9.
Running as guest: FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE clean ISO install first update run.
ISO file name: FreeBSD-10.1-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso

After the initial freeze, and subsequent reset, the system seems to run fine.
