on my system /mnt is constructed like this
chula# ns | grep '/mnt $'
bind -c /root/mnt /mnt
mount -a '#s/factotum' /mnt
if i unmount /mnt i get
chula# unmount /mnt
chula# '/mnt $'
it might be surprising that, e.g.,
mount -c '#D/ssl/2/data' /mnt/term
is not unmounted, but the mntpt isn't /mnt,
it's /mnt/term. things below /mnt are not
accessable because we must walk from the
root.
with this knowledge, one can reconstruct
the former namespace and unmount /mnt/cd.
chula# bind -c /root/mnt /mnt
chula# mount -a '#s/factotum' /mnt
chula# unmount /mnt/cd
alternatevely, "slay cdfs | rc" would work,
if you didn't care about that ns being screwy.
