In my S40unmountfs: echo -n "Unmounting local filesystems..." umount -tnoproc,noprocfs,nodevfs,nosysfs,nousbfs,nousbdevfs,nodevpts -d -a -r echo "done." # This is superfluous. mount -n -o remount,ro / The umount -r means that in case unmounting fails, remount ro, which therefore makes the mount -o remount,ro superfluous. If you disable both attempts to remount ro and either power off or fsck, you risk corruption. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
