Hi, For a few months now, I have had the error message - `/dev/hda4 busy - mounted ro' (hda4 is my /var) after all partitions are unmounted on shutdown. I haven't worried about it too much up until now.
After running for about 20 days and then shutting down, init froze with `processes still running' (or something similar) before unmounting any drives (actually before saving random seed I think). I could switch consoles, but init had stopped most services so I couldn't log in. The following few shutdown -r now's worked as before (with the hda4 busy). I am running potato on a 2.2.12 kernel with Hedrick's ide.2.2.12.19990925 patch. Unfortunately one critical (for me) part of this patch didn't make it into 2.2.13 so I don't want to upgrade yet. Anyone seen anything similar? Regards, Mark.
