Subject: Shutdown doesnt unmount
From: levinson@vax.sonoma.edu

Okay. I got BOOTUTILS and installed the new mount, umount, rdev and fsck. I
noticed that if I did a shutdown now, and when the system goes to single user,
I type umount -a, then reboot all is well (VFS doesnt say it is mounting
unchecked filesystem and e2fsck skips its check)

However, any other shutdown command does not unmount root. Is there a newer
shutdown command? I tried creating the file /etc/brc and placed

umount -a

in it, but still no luck. It looks like shutdown does not run umount.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Eric
