I don't think you want to use a 2.4.15 kernel
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.4/ChangeLog-2.4.16

pre1:
- - Correctly sync inodes in iput()                          (Alexander Viro)

If you go back through some old postings I am sure you can find issues that 
people had when unmounting filesystems. (ie it totally corrupted filesystem)

I ran this for a day or so and I know I at least unmounted once, but better 
safe than sorry, and soon had patched 2.4.15 to 2.4.16-pre1
