Hello,

I never havae had NFS mounts or critical USB-mounts when those unclean
filesystems occured. In most cases, I compiled prior to the reboot an
operating system (on the Dell PowerEdge 1950 III box). The other, UP box
got stuck after a normal shutdown, it doesn't matter whether I did a
'reboot', 'shutdown -r now' or 'shutdown -p now' or simply pushed the
power button. When those problems occured, the were preceded by 'not
dying processes' and after several minutes the OS tried to kill those
mustang processes the reboot or shutdown was performed and after a
reboot or fresh restart, the filesystem went into the fsck-stuff.
