Recently, I've been getting a : message: : : ...... mount: /dev/hda4 is busy : : when partitions are being dis-mounted. Any clues as to how to determine what : process is keeping the partition busy?
Just a thought... what's the order of mounts in your /etc/fstab? /var has to be mounted AFTER / is mounted so you should have something like: /dev/sda1 / ext2 defaults 1 1 /dev/sdb1 none swap sw 1 0 proc /proc proc defaults 1 0 /dev/sda2 /var ext2 defaults 1 2 in /etc/fstab.
