First off, don't tell us what the program did, show us exactly what the program did by copying and pasting the initial prompt, the command, and the following prompt. Like so: root@ideapc:~# umount /media/disk umount: /media/disk: not mounted. root@ideapc:~# > > How can I unmount the partition? I haven't seen any evidence that the partition has ever been mounted. When and how do you think it was mounted, and how do you know? Have you tried mounting it manually? Your fstab has the following two (unwrapped) lines: # 1000gb hdd via its LVM, cf. also /etc/crypttab #/dev/mapper/1Terabyte01--vg-data01 /mnt/data01-hdd ext4 default That sharp (#) at the beginning of the second line means that line is commented out. So I suspect the volume never was mounted. -- Does anybody read signatures any more? https://charlescurley.com https://charlescurley.com/blog/
