2.4.5-ac4 was fine, 2.4.5-ac5:

/space in /etc/fstab:

/dev/hda10	/space1			reiserfs	defaults 1 2

strace umount /space1:

open("/usr/lib/locale/en_US/LC_TIME", O_RDONLY) = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=2441, ...}) = 0

readlink("/space1", 0xbfffe51c, 4095)   = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
open("/etc/mtab", O_RDONLY)             = 3
fstat64(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=680, ...}) = 0

munmap(0x40021000, 4096)                = 0
oldumount("/space1"

and there it hangs. The kernel doesn't hang, but while 'mount' displays
/space1 as mounted, ls /space1/ says nothing. df -m reveals:

Filesystem           1M-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda10                2015       907      1005  48% /space1

Good luck,
Jurriaan
