"Giving up on 2 buffers" message when rebooting while ext2fs mounted
Hi all, I've just installed my FreeBSD system and upgraded it to the lastest -STABLE with buildworld . I have an EXT3 partition on my second harddrive that I mount read-only with the command : mount -o ro -t ext2fs /dev/ad1s1 /mount_point The problem is that if I reboot without umounting that filesystem I get this message on reboot : syncing disks, buffers remaining... 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 giving up on 2 buffers After the reboot the file systems are considered "unclean" and checked with fsck. If I umount the ext3 filesystem before rebooting I get the "No busy buffers" message and all is fine . What is causing this? Thanks Marcello
