It would appear, from the partition, that Peter is having problems
with his root partition.  This is a tricky one to get unmounted unless
you boot from floppy.  You can avoid having to boot from floppy by
booting to single user and doing a fsck on the root partition.  Once
the fsck is done then either a) power off the machine immediately or
b) run "shutdown -n".  Doing this is important because if you try and
shutdown nicely the kernel will copy the munged super-block back onto
disk and undo the work that fsck has done so you must carefully avoid
syncing the bad info back to disk.

excepting just after you fsck'ed the root file system - all other
instances you should halt the machine.
