Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: util-linux
I unmounted my external disk via the Nautilus right-click->"Safely
remove drive" menu item. When I went to remount the disk (given a label
titan to always mount at /media/titan), it ended up being mounted at
/media/titan_ since /media/titan still existed. This manifested itself
in Banshee being unable to find any of the music that lives on that
disk.
It was impossible to remove /media/titan:
j...@rigel:~$ sudo rm -rf /media/titan
rm: cannot remove directory `/media/titan': Device or resource busy
and furthermore, nothing shows up as using it in the output from lsof:
j...@rigel:~$ lsof | grep /media/titan
j...@rigel:~$
The only way round this that I have found is to reboot, delete the
/media/titan directory (now no longer busy) and remount the disk.
