 |
|
Hello,
A few days ago my system hung and I had to do a reboot by pressing the power button. Since then I get the following message while shutdown/reboots
| Code: | Remounting remaining filesystems readonly [!!]
umount : udev busy - remounted read-only
umount : /: device is busy
umount : /: device is busy
umount : /: device is busy
Give root password for maintenance
(or type Control-D to continue): |
If I don't do anything then the system reboots in approximately 5 seconds but on reboot it replays a few transactions on my "/" filesystem.
I have tried re-emerging udev but it did not help.
Googling did not bring any results either.
Any ideas to solved this problem will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Abhay |

Thanks once again to Gentoo User list this problem is solved as well.
This is what I was told to do
| Code: | init 1
umount -a
lsof /dev |
There I found that a program explicitly started by me using local.start was not unmounting its entries in /dev. Used local.stop to end the program and now it doesn't end in error
