Is there a stronger kill than kill -9? I had a process which attached
itself to my tape drive and then locked up. I couldn't kill it no
matter what I tried. This caused me great concern, backups are very
important to me and I couldn't access the tape drive with this process
on it. I shut down the system (two of my file systems didn't unmount
because of the process and shutting down didn't kill the process either)
and rebooted.
Any suggestions.
