Subject: umount -a

Message-ID: <4E387230.5060002@gmail.com> (raw)
At linuxfromscratch, we've just made some changes to write bootscript
messages to /run/var. This seems to work fine for us until shutdown where
umaount -a
unmounts /run which is mounted as a tmpfs. We can certainly work around
the problem, but was wondering if this issue may also affect others.
The man page for umount says:
-a All of the file systems described in /etc/mtab are unmounted.
(With umount version 2.7 and later: the proc filesystem is not
unmounted.)
Would it be reasonable to change umount -a to also omit /run if it is
mounted as a tmpfs?
