Hi Aaron,
Have you tried upgrading glibc?
There was a problem with older glibc's, where they would never close
/etc/ld.so.cache, and hence the disk wouldn't be unmountable.
Try upgrading to the latest glibc for RH5.2. (think it's in updates.)

Not sure if this is a RAID issue, but I'm running out of things to blame
it on.
P2 450Mhz
Genuine SymBios 53c895
2x Quantum Atlas III 9GB
RAID 1 for all partitions except for swap
2.0.36 with raid0145-19990108-2.0.36
RAID tools 0.90
RH 5.2
Execute an init 0 or init 6 and it starts the shutdown process. The last
lines it displays:
Stopping kernel services: kerneld
INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel
And then it just hangs until I hit the reset button. It then boots,
fsck's all the partitions and then RAID sync's the secondary to the
master. Luckly this doesn't seem to cause any corruption. However since
the machine is about a 45 minute drive away, its not very optimal to have
to hit reset everytime I do an init 6 after a new kernel is compiled.
Thoughts anyone? (raidtab/mdstat follow)
Thanks!
