Question : MacBook Stuck on Shut-Down

I have a MacBook running Snow Leopard 10.6.3. I have it set to boot into Verbose Mode. I just tried to do a restart and it won't finish shutting down.

The last lines showing are:
synching files... Killing all processes
continuing
unmount of /Home failed (45)
Unmount of /net failed (45)

Anyone know why this might have happened?

Answer : MacBook Stuck on Shut-Down

How long did you let it sit before you manually shut it down?  Sometimes processes (undeclared in verbose mode) will take a good long while to settle up.  Other times, of course, they are just locked and you have to hold down the power button to shut down.  It's not uncommon, and doesn't necessarily mean that you have a problem.

Can you post the system.log from that shutdown/boot sequence?
