- 10 to 1 you're now running crond or the TCP daemons (inted, named, etc)
- which have a working directory somewhere in /usr. (/usr/spool/cron/crontabs
- or /usr/etc/inet respectively)
-
- In order to unmount the partition, you cannot have any files accessing
- it... kill the dameons off and try unmounting it manually.
-
- (Although, if it's just a problem at shutdown, it should not be a significant
- problem, as long as the filesystems is sync'ed, there is no reason that the
- filesystem has to be unmounted... you should be able to safely ignore
- the warning).
