Yes, but I didn't checked if it was not working, but since it is a big problem if trying to umount the device, it will be much nicer to have this functionnalities. And yes, it still need to parse /etc/mtab (or maybe if the format fail, trying to unlock the device and re-opens ?). > > It is maybe already the case but it will be much safer to allow > > the same user and only him to release the supermounted floppy. > > > > "the same" - which one?

Yes, in fact I didn't check but checked umount was not working in such case. François.
