shutdown problem with 2.6.22 and debian 4.0

shutdown problem with 2.6.22 and debian 4.0

[Daniel Filipiuk]

Hello, I have a doubt... I have Debian 4.0 and the kernel 2.6.22
compiled by me, and now when I shutdown my machine, appears a message
telling that the devices (/dev/sda5 , 6 and so on..) are busy and
cannot be unmounted, and tells me that I must update my shutdown
utility... Then the system go halt ... It doesn´t seem to be any data
loss , but I don´t want to leave this error message forever hoping
that I don´t loose anything... With the kernel 2.6.21.5 this doesn´t
happened, and the mounts were succesfully unmounted. What should I do?
Where I found this "shutdown utility" source code?

Thank you very much, greetings,

Pd: sorry for my basic english! ;-)

Dunno about the busy part but you need to update the shutdown utility.

I replaced the Debian shutdown patch with the attached one and it seems
to do the job.

# Make sure SATA disks are powered down as well as IDE disks.  This
# patch could use some more work to make it more dynamic when
# detecting SATA/SCSI disks.  Closes: #348172

# Also exclude disks w/ manage_start_stop from the shutdown handling
