Should have mentioned, that this is not an XFS problem but is a
in the GRUB bootloader which insists in trying to write to a mounted,
live file system. For some reason, the fact that GRUB couldn't do this
to XFS was considered a problem with XFS, rather than in GRUB. Half
my systems use lilo when they are correctly configured. They boot
in about half the time (not using a ram disk).

cannot install grub into it at least).
Some have had this problem.
I have never had this issue. My root (and boot) partition are xfs.---
