 fstat: the only listed stuff is related to / and no other mount point
 
 Running processes: init, one login, one /bin/sh (fresh root login).
 If I only have those processes running, I would assume that I'm able
 to unmount everything except /?

 As I required to use the corresponding computer, I need to make it
 behave like this again.  I'll try mount -a and then report, but don't
 understand currently why that should give some insight.  The problem
 mounts are listed as noauto mounts in fstab and thus I assume mount -a
 should do anything about them.
 
 The last time, the nfs-mount got stuck.  The two null-mounts were
 unmounted successfully.
