    Yes, expected behaviour :-). The running X-server and the xterms most 
    likely blocks the unmount of the /usr filesystem....

Except that all running processes get killed before the umount's
occur.  I don't see the described problem on my system; I reboot from
an xterm all the time.  The system is 2.0 CDROM.
