[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 -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

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. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
