Fair point, but either way, it is not udev doing it and /etc/fstab is not involved. -- Neil Bothwick In an atomic war, all men will be cremated equal. signature.asc Description: PGP signature
[gentoo-user] udev and fstab
hi Gentoo udev Guide didnt answer my question, is it good idea to remove fstab entry for removables, i have this /dev/hdc /media/cdrecorder autouser,exec,noauto,managed 0 0 since fresh install and then there was devfs. Am I right that udev will handle mounts for /dev/hdc/ (DVD+CDRW) according to udev.rules what media is inserted? And is there way to very force umount media even if it claims device is busy and i cant figure out what process is responsible for that. martins -- Linux 2.6.14-ck6 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ 16:48:18 up 6:00, 5 users, load average: 1.06, 1.08, 1.08 pgpdHC3iTvxlN.pgp Description: PGP signature

No, udev handles device node creation. You still have to mount yourself or use an automounter. And is there way to very force umount media even if it claims device is busy and i cant figure out what process is responsible for that. Did you try fuser? Bye...

I made the experience that fuser or lsof often don't help much when you have problems unmounting a device. The output is empty, and you don't know why the heck you are not allowed to unmount a device. Best regards ce -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
