[newbie] device /usr busy? SAY WHAT?

Hey group I just got some weird errors when I went to either shut down or reboot the server. It said something like /usr was busy and it retried to umount again approx 3 or 4 times, has anyone else had this error and know how to correct it so on bootup it does not have to do a fsck of the usr ?
