Re: Booting takes too long. Why? (/ was not properly dismounted)

2003-06-17 Thread Rohit
shutdown -h -o appears to behave the same as simply using halt
I'm glad I dont have to wait for the disc errors anymore

Rohit:
You mean to say that when you use 'halt' instead of
'shutdown -h', your machince boots faster?

Roger:
I don't think that 'shutdown -h' = 'halt'
Rohit is not invoking halt.
'shutdown -h -o' = 'halt'

Rohit:
Can you try 'shutdown -h -o' and let us know what's the
result?

Thanks for your help Jud, you are absolutely right. With issuing the halt 
command, there are no excessive delays in booting. Inface booting is really

did you try 'halt'?
what msg. do you see after the shutdown is complete?

From the halt(8) man page:
"Normally, the shutdown(8) utility is used when the system needs to be 
halted or restarted, giving users advance warning of their impending doom 
and cleanly terminating specific programs."

From the shutdown(8) man page:
"The following options are available:
-h  The system is halted at the specified time."
So Rohit is in fact using 'halt' in the way it is normally invoked, as an 
option to 'shutdown.'  Is there a reason that 'halt' without 'shutdown' 
would be preferable in this case?

could the shutdown binary be broken on your installations ? are you running
the same release on all machines installed from the same media ?

How big is your / partition?  During the halt/reboot sequence, does it give any
errors?  Are all the buffers flushed?
I'm grasping at straws here ... Is there some daemon running that takes too long
to shutdown or doesn't shutdown cleanly, thus preventing the system from flushing
all its buffers and marking the fs clean?
One thing to try: manually stop all processes that you can, then issue "sync" a
few times, then (when disk activity has stopped) issue reboot.  See if / is still
dirty on reboot.
Does fsck succeed during boot?  Possibly boot into single-usr mode and issue
"fsck -y" until the filesystems are all marked clean, then try your standard
method of rebooting and see if the / partition is now clean.
Many guesses here.  Hopefully one of them will be helpful.
