Generally speaking, no one can unmount the root dir and people remount it as readonly instead of unmounting at the shutdown time. If you use aufs as your root dir, you should remount it and your writable branches as readonly. (from the aufs manual) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- When your aufs is the root directory of your system, and your system tells you some of the filesystem were not unmounted cleanly, try these procedure when you shutdown your system. .nf # mount -no remount,ro / # for i in $writable_branches # do mount -no remount,ro $i # done .fi If your xino file is on a hard drive, you also need to specify `noxino' option or `xino=/your/tmpfs/xino' at remounting root directory. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- J.
