Hi all, one of my systems is booting over PXE and running diskless. The root-filesystem is mounted over NFS by the kernel (with the help of the net-hook in initcpio). On shutdown there is a message '/: device is busy'. I found out, that this is originated by the netfs-script in /etc/rc.d. It tries to umount everything on the network. By removing this hook the warning went away. I think this is not as meant. Its not a critical error, only a warning, because of that i would hear you opinion on that. Additionally i discoverd following piece of code in rc.shutdown: stat_busy "Unmounting Filesystems" /bin/umount -a -r -t noramfs,notmpfs,nosysfs,noproc,nodevtmpfs -O no_netdev stat_done Here, only non-network filesystems are unmounted, right? So, an NFS-root is not unmounted on shutdown. That is not good, i think it should be looked for a solution. What do you think? Would be nice to hear from you. Greetings Thomas Bahn Here are my settings related with nfs: kernel-parameter: rootfstype=nfs root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=192.168.1.2:/srv/nfs/erich,v3,rsize=16384,wsize=16384 ip=dhcp /etc/fstab entry for the root: none / none /etc/rc.conf: NETWORK_PERSIST = "yes" /etc/mkinitcpio.conf: MODULES="nfs" HOOKS="base udev autodetect net filesystems"
