1 Hi,
2
3 I have here a gentoo diskless system which boots over pxeboot and
4 mount everything over NFS from my big Gentoo server.
5
6 But at shutdown I get the error message:
7 Failed to simply unmount filesystems
8 Unmounting network filesystems (retry #1) ...
9 INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel
10
11 After some investigation I found a work-around.
12 I deleted the line
13 [[ -z $(umount -art ${rcfilesystems} 2>&1) ]]
14 in /etc/init.d/netmount (function stop() )
15
16 I think the problem here is that netmount unmounts all partitions
17 (including /) and so the shutdown process cannot be continued.
18
19 Should not netmount skip unmounting / ?

21 Best regards,
22 Matthias
