Hmm. May well be no longer mounted. The error was what confused me a bit, 
especially as there was an issue with RO mounts for normal systems.

Looks like we're doing:
/bin/umount -a -r
/sbin/swapoff -a
reboot

So I guess we just need to stop udev cleanly before the umount.
What would be the best command for that? Just 'kill -15 $(pidof udevd)'?

Just tried that and seems to work. Reassigning to rootskel as that's where 
the responsible script lives, but I'd appreciate your reaction if the 
above is correct.

I also do wonder a bit what's changed that causes this with the new 
version of udev. I'm quite sure we did not see it with the old one.

Thanks,
Frans
