Hello! I have found a VERY strange issue on using the name "md0" as a mount point. If I use "/mnt/md0" as a mount point for the md device or normal HD device, I could not umount it after booting the system having "device is busy" error. However, it is OK if I manually make a RAID then mount it to "/mnt/md0". I checked if it has any processes running on it with "fuser" but nothing. Does "/mnt/md0" have a special meaning(usage) for system? Please provide me a clue. Thanks, //Bo The followins are my experiment on this issue; root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# cat /proc/mounts /dev/root / ext2 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 /dev/md0 /mnt/md0 ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/md3 /mnt/md3 ext2 rw 0 0 root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# umount /mnt/md0 umount: /mnt/md0: device is busy --------------- root@P3000-PP1:/etc# fuser -v /mnt/md0 USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /mnt/md0 root kernel mount /mnt/md0 ----------------after chnage the name of mount point from /mnt/md0 to /mnt/user--------------- root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# cat /proc/mounts /dev/root / ext2 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 /dev/md0 /mnt/user ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/md3 /mnt/md3 ext2 rw 0 0 root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# umount /mnt/user root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# ------------------------ root@P3000-PP1:/etc# vi fstab /dev/hda2 / ext2 defaults 1 1 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/hda3 swap swap defaults 0 0 /dev/md0 /mnt/user ext2 defaults 0 0 /dev/md3 /mnt/md3 ext2 defaults 0 0 Another experiment ---------------------- root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# cat /proc/mounts /dev/root / ext2 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 /dev/hdb2 /mnt/md0 ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/md3 /mnt/md3 ext2 rw 0 0 root@P3000-PP1:/home/bmoon# umount /mnt/md0 umount: /mnt/md0: device is busy - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
