I cannot umount a usb memory stick that was mounted with
gnome-volume-manager while the file browser, Nautilus 2.8.2, is running
either by right clicking the desktop usbdisk icon or the folder in the
file browser. Error message: "umount: /media/usbdisk: device is busy".
The following is the attempt to execute pumount with debug option:
$: pumount -d usbdisk
checking whether usbdisk is a mounted directory
checking whether /media/usbdisk is a mounted directory
resolved mount point /media/usbdisk to device /dev/sda1
resolved /dev/sda1 to device /dev/sda1
policy check passed
Executing command: /bin/umount /dev/sda1
umount: /media/usbdisk: device is busy
umount: /media/usbdisk: device is busy
umount program terminated with status 256
Error: umount failed
The usbdisk folder is not open in the file browser. The "fuser -m
/dev/sda1" does not list any processes using the usbdisk. Umount is
successful if file browser is closed first. I am a member of the
plugdev group, the /etc/mtab entry for /media/usbdisk is assigned to my
uid,gid, and usbdisk is not listed in fstab.
This should be possible. I've been able to umount the usbdisk while
file browser is running on a ubuntu 5.10 system. I'm running sarge with
packaged kernel 2.6.8-2-686.
