This does actually mean it was not successfully unmounted, the last phase
of system shutdown is to remount the root filesystem readonly, it is possible
that this is not working.
If you are running a redhat based system, then look at /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt
for this code:
#echo "Remounting remaining filesystems (if any) readonly"
mount | awk '/ext2/ { print $3 }' | while read line; do
mount -n -o ro,remount $line
done
Try adding:
mount | awk '/xfs/ { print $3 }' | while read line; do
mount -n -o ro,remount $line
done
and see if that helps. I think someone else also reported that devfs was
getting in the way during shutdown.

p.s. this was cut and pasted from the archive since we had an email outage
here and I didn't actually get this message.
