EXT3 and umount hangs

        I've been using ext3 happily on a bunch of machines (primarily 0.0.2c
on 2.2.13), and its been really stable. But today I tried installing it on a
20GB WD205AA, and it appears that any attempt to umount some of the ext3 file
systems after one reboot after installing ext3 hangs. The thing that these
problematic file systems have in common are that they are not the first
partition in an extended partition. (There are other similarities, like they
all extend/exist beyond 512 cylinders, but I have other machines where that
doesn't seem to affect anything.)
        This is with 0.0.2d on 2.2.15. I believe this has also occured to me
once with 2.2.13/0.0.2c, but I didn't pursue that one.
        I haven't found any data that seems relevant (maybe I overlooked
something), but I'm willing to provide any data necessary to resolve this
problem.
