unmounting a volume

[Duane Attaway]

I mounted the volume through the command line with the mount command.  I 
found the hanging processes of sync had init as its parent.  Not sure why 
I couldn't kill them.  I'm thankful the lsof utility was mentioned as it 
found a few system libraries tying deleted resources to it, so there may 
have been a bug in them.  Unloading the libraries (init 6!) finally did 
it.  This is what I get for running development kernels and system.  Its 
good to have utilities like lsof to understand why things go bad as it 
turned my fustration into an enjoyable learning experience.
