The other asnwers in this list are all very usefull, but sometimes I find that whatever I do, I cannot unmount for example /usr. In such cases, it's best to do mount -o remount,ro /usr i.e. remount it read-only, so that all data is written do the partition, and you can now safely switch off the computer (execute "halt"). (assuming all other partions are unmonuted properly). -- joost witteveen [EMAIL PROTECTED] I came, I saw, ..., well, it wasn't free so I left again. (LUA, 1988)
