As a sanity check, I've reconfirmed the problem on a jaunty/ext4/amd64
system. When I select 'fsck' from the recovery menu, I am told: "mount:
/ is busy" (at the bottom of the screen, it goes away very quickly as
the menu seems to refresh immediately after fsck errors out. When I
select a root shell prompt and try "mount -o ro,remount /" I receive the
same message: "mount: / is busy"
s...@portege:~$ dpkg -l | grep friendly-recovery
ii friendly-recovery 0.2.8.1
Make recovery more user-friendly
Attached is a log of what happens when I tinker a bit to try to umount
other filesystems to see if that helps (short version: it doesn't).
... And here's some tune2fs -l output (from the system booted multi-user,
forgot to include it in the log above)
s...@portege:~$ sudo tune2fs -l /dev/disk/by-label/root #multi-user boot
