Okay, I've seen various references to problems with loopback
mounts under (early) 2.2.x kernels. But I don't see any reference
to a solution (ie. how to umount the stupid thing).
My situation is that I have mounted a CD image on a machine
for use in kickstart builds. The mount point is /kickstart/image
When I attempt "umount /kickstart/image" and other variations
on the theme, I get a "umount: /kickstart/image: device is busy".
Is there ANYWAY (w/o rebooting) to unmount this, forcibly or
otherwise? Or is the solution only to reboot?
TIA!

Is it nfs exported?
If so, unexport it first.
