Yeah, that might work... you will probably find a hung (waiting on I/O)
process.  kill (or umount -k) doesn't always do it under Linux (can we say
less than stellar).  Some times, if the process has gone Zombie, you might
be able to do a "strace -p <pid of hung process>" to wake the reaper up and
kill the zombie child.
