Re: 2.4.0 umount problem

2001-01-10 Thread Frédéric L . W . Meunier

Just FYI, when 2.2.0 was released (yes, 2.2), I moved from
2.0.36 to it on a RedHat 5.1 with all the updates and the rest
built from scratch. And shutting down the system gave me the
same results: / -> device or resource busy. No need to say
that fsck was used. The other partitions were cleanly
unmounted.

2.2.1 was released after some days. Rebooting with this Kernel
would do the same. Then (I was too lazy to try fuser or lsof) I
started doing init 1 and umount / for half a year, then it
worked again (I don't know what changed, but I never edited the
RedHat scripts).

BTW, what's the problem with devfs? I plan to use it, but now
am afraid.

Are you sure its that. I was seeing this with one box in 2.4.0 but I don't see
it in -ac. (No I dont know why either). Even better do you know which script so
I can work out why

2.4.0 umount problem

2001-01-10 Thread M T

I'm running redhat 6.2 halt scripts and strange problem appears when 
shutting system down with kernel-2.4.0. I get message that "/ device is 
busy". I've updated util-linux (kill,mount,umount) according to 
documentation without any success. I've got no problems with 2.2.18.
Any ideas?
