Hi all!

Yes, it's another umount prob.
And no, I already tried fuser -c and fuser -u, but to no avail. :(

OK, dirs cannot be mounted, but I'll just call it that way for now.

My sys is Sol 2.6. on Sparc.
The prob is that I have a dir that's stuck in the middle of being
umounted. Umount says device busy, but nothing is mounted "below" that
target. The entry in mnttab is still there, but the presumably still
mounted dir is not accessible that way.
I haven't installed lsof at the moment, though.

Greetz and many thanx,
  John

If you've already tried "fuser -ck /somefs; umount /somefs" then I think a
reboot would be the only way to fix it.

you probably have it shared.

The word of the day is mispergitude

Try lsof (depending on your OS, you may need to find a copy from somewhere)
- this will show files in use within the filesystem as well

Had a similar problem the other day - just dropped the box down a runlevel and it
was fine.
