Hello, all.

Some time ago, I moved my /usr/lib folder to a separate partition to net some 
space on /. Now, I want to fix my partitions on that second drive, so I've 
moved all the linux folders to / again. (The /usr/lib files are in a folder 
called /usr/lib2 for now.)

The problem I've come across this time is that so many things are using files 
in /usr/lib, I can't unmount it. Stopping all services leaves me with my login 
being the only thing still hanging the umount.

So, my question is, does anyone know what will happen if I try to umount -l, 
remove the /usr/lib mountpoint, and rename /usr/lib2 to /usr/lib? It would seem 
that there'd be no problem as long as I don't need to log into a new shell? 
Going the other way wasn't a problem, as I just renamed the old folder and 
mounted the partition on a new one.

Any suggestions appreciated.
