As I said remounting the NFS /home allows them to exit and allows / to then be remounted ro and the system shutdown. I think there are three bugs here: 1. KDE is not waiting for all of its sessions processes to exit before telling init to halt the system. 2. The rc0 scripts are not making sure all processes using the NFS files systems have exited prior to unmounting them. 3. The rc0 final / remount ro commadn should make sure all processes have been killed prior to issuing the remount command. (will the kernel allow them to be killed when waiting on unmounted NFS ? Kernel bug ?)
