By the way, what is the big picture, if you don't mind my asking? Are you
trying to eventually achieve a diskless workstation? What is the
overall goal here?
It's a cluster where machines get booted, shutdown or replaced regularly.
So it would be nice to keep the kernel running.

The umount command fails with device is busy. privot root and chroot
work fine.
So everything works except the umount. Interesting. From the example
in the man page they obviously expect it to be possible to umount the
old root file system.
Kill should be able to kill any process
I really wonder in which context this example (and also the other one
given
in the manpage) could work? Have you sucessfully tried it on your
system?
No, I've never had occasion to.
But where exactly is the failure occuring?
Does the mount command fail?
Does the pivot_root command fail?
