do you guys see anything I don't? the only other thing I can think of is if it's lvm2/device-mapper, and /usr /var are both on lvm volumes, so I can't really disable that to test.... -Dan
What I see is a lack of another process having the device open. Unless someone else has a good reason to still believe that's the problem, or can suggest a program which might be opening and then closing the device, I would look for some less-likely cause.
