I've used all Mandriva version since 10.1, but after upgrading to 2007 I started getting messages about problems unmounting /home when I shut down the computer. I had this same problem on 2 different computers. I have no problems using /home partition besides this. Here is the error message:
Distribution: ubuntu, RHAS, and other unmentionables

Rep:
It's likely just what it says... you still an application accessing /home or open /home files
Have a look at the lsof command. It should help you to narrow down the cause.
ok, to make sure I would have as little possible software running on my computer I exited KDE to the command line. Then I issued the command:
lsof | grep /home/felipe
To isolate on lsof
And it shows nothing. And right after I do a "reboot" command and I get the device busy message...
If KDE is open I see hundreds of things after executing the command above.
Any other ideas??
I can't beliave anyone else is having this problem, because I searched this forum and found nothing about it. I install Mandriva 2007 on 3 different machine and have the same problem on all. And on 2 of them I used 2006 without problems.
