How about save a few more bytes and do:

extfs=`mount -text2fs|cut -d\  -f`

But "umount -a -text2fs" is the shortest version since it doesn't even
need a loop, it does everything in one command.

I sense much NT in you.
NT leads to Bluescreen.
Bluescreen leads to downtime.
Downtime leads to suffering.
NT is the path to the darkside.
Powerful Unix is.
