[gentoo-user] Bug in /etc/init.d/netmount?
Hi,
I have here a gentoo diskless system which boots over pxeboot and
mount everything over NFS from my big Gentoo server.
But at shutdown I get the error message:
Failed to simply unmount filesystems
Unmounting network filesystems (retry #1) ...
INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel
After some investigation I found a work-around.
I deleted the line
[[ -z $(umount -art ${rcfilesystems} 21) ]]
in /etc/init.d/netmount (function stop() )
I think the problem here is that netmount unmounts all partitions
(including /) and so the shutdown process cannot be continued.
Should not netmount skip unmounting / ?
Best regards,
Matthias

AFAIK you are correct, this is a bug in a few of the initscripts that
don't behave sensibly if the root fs is network mounted.
Another one that gets messed up is IPTAbles. I didn't think much of it
because I figured I was the only person in the world crazy enough to
have a diskless router/firewall.
Interestingly, some of my diskless hosts do all right with this, others
fail to shut down.
