17:16 $ grep -C "Deconfiguring network interfaces:" /etc/init.d/*
/etc/init.d/networking-            echo "NOT deconfiguring network interfaces: NFS/SMB shares still mounted."
/etc/init.d/networking-        else
/etc/init.d/networking:            echo -n "Deconfiguring network interfaces: "
/etc/init.d/networking-            ifdown -a
/etc/init.d/networking-            echo "done."

Does ifdown hang when you're not shutting down?  RTFM ifdown, then
try ifdown -avn to debug things.
