Hi Jure, make sure every process is stopped before you try to umount /usr. fuser -mv /usr returns a list with processes accessing the /usr mount. BTW: We will provide our shared root for gfs clusters soon. This will give you the possibility you to use gfs for the / mountpoint. Keep looking at http://www.open-sharedroot.org .
