[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#431966: sysvinit cannot unmount cifs filesystems

[Sander Marechal]

Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.86.ds1-38
Severity: normal


Hello,

I have two cifs filesystems mounted under /media. When I shut down the machine I get errors
when /etc/init.d/umountnfs.sh tries to unmount them. I get the following errors after a long
delay:

  CIFS VFS: Server not responding
  CIFS VFS: No response for cmd 50 mid 17

Sometimes the cmd and mid are a different number, but most often it's this. I have tried giving
umountnfs.sh a higher priority (lower number) in /etc/rc0.d/ but that didn't help. I also tried
writing a custom init script that would unmount the filesystems manually for me. The script
works flawlessly when I run it as root, but when linked from rc0 it fails in the same way as,
no matter what priority I give it. Not even setting it all the way up to K00 works. sysvinit
always fails to unmount the cifs filesystems and gives the above error.
