>Description:
When a FreeBSD 5 machine has an ext2 file system mounted at shutdown-time,
the syncer fails at synching all the buffers, finally gives up.
After the next reboot, the UFS file systems (such as / /usr /var) need to be
checked.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. install e2fsprogs package or port
2. create a new file system with mke2fs on some scratch partition
3. mount that partition on /mnt
4. type "reboot" or "halt".
