[gentoo-dev] rc5 problem w/ umountfs?

[Grant Goodyear]

I noticed that when rebooting or shutting down my new rc5
system, unmounting the filesystem fails.  Anybody else
having this problem?

Yes, I'm having this problem too.  However, if you're using Reiserfs
then it is purely a cosmetic bug, since we do several syncs and remount
the filesystem read-only in the end.  ext2 may be less tolerant of it.
Not sure what's causing it; care to post to the dev-wiki?
