Yes, it is sysimage.  Any file open on the mounted file
system will keep the umount from working.  Also, any
other filesystems mounted within it must be unmounted
first.  Does 'mount' show any others - like a separate
mount for /mnt/sysimage/boot?  If so, unmount them
before the one at /mnt/sysimage.
