(Get the code!)
I was having the same problem on one of my servers running 2.6.32-21-server 64 bit. Once I stopped MySQL, apache2, nagios and snmpd the disk IO slowed to the point where a sync was possible. Once the sync completed the dpkg ended. I did need to run dpkg --configure -a to get dpkg working properly again. Let me know if any additional information would be helpful.
