From my reading of /etc/rc, it seems that at shutdown or reboot, the OS will automatically unmount everything.
So that will unmount my encrypted partition.
However, it does not run bioctl -d sd* for the pseudo-device.
So I guess the question become, is it a problem to exit the system without detaching the softraid volume via bioctl?
Thanks!
