SubjectRE: 2.1.49 not umount cleanly
I suppose I'm doing something wrong, then, because I have rebooted 2.1.49
10 or 15 times with no problems.. then again, I've also got 29 different,
seperate, clean-installing, non-overlapping diffs.. Bugfixes from
linux-kernel... suddenly, I have a stable, msdos working kernel again..
Want my collection? I can grep out the FS patches if you want.. (diff.fs,
patches sorted by tree).
