Re: Sending all processes the TERM signal



Hi,
    I tried your suggestions to no avail, the /usr filesystem wasn't even mounted. I am running with a RAID-5 hardware array if this matters at all. Any other suggestions?
 
FYI - reboot, shutdown, and init commands all hang with the msg:
 
"Sending all processes the TERM signal".
 
Thanks,
 
Hung

There is a problem, relating to "init" busying the /usr/share on shutdown! If
this fs is on a separate drive partition, it might not umount cleanly. This
hangs up shutdown. I use a -l (lazy) umount preceded by sync and with sleeps
to try to get arouind all this. Shutdown works, the partitions (ext3)
recovers with its journal on next bootup and all is clean and fine.

But this "init" problem has been going on for a while--would like to see this
fixed :-)
