Description Viraj Alankar 2000-09-13 22:28:06 UTC
When rebooting our system, which has / as a md0 RAID1 device, we get:

Unmounting file

Upon reboot, everything seems to mount correctly without any problems, so
I'm wondering if I should be worrying about the above error. My
/etc/raidtab:

Any help appreciated.

Viraj.

Is md0 your root device? This definitely doesn't hurt anything btw.

Comment 3 Viraj Alankar 2000-09-19 18:19:30 UTC
Yes, md0 is /

Comment 4 Erik Troan 2000-09-29 16:24:41 UTC
We're fixing this bug in initscripts (turning off raid before shutting down used
to be necessary, but it's not anymore). It won't cause any problems, just ugly
messages.
