Hi,
when i shutdown the system i notice in the output messages the following error:

Code:

* Remounting remaining filesystems read-only ...
*     Remounting / read-only ...
*     failed because we are using /
* ERROR: mount-ro failed to start


Why the system tries to remount / in read-only?
In case it is a common step (and i don't know), why it fails?

lordalbert,

*     failed because we are using /


The filesystem was synced but its still in use.

Its only a problem if you get a fsck at every boot.
