That's what e.g. "fstat /a" can tell you.

No other files were open; it was preceded by an "*rm -rf /a/**" cmd.
But even after doing that, umounting it, and re-mounting it, I find:

Whoops! Trying to minimize arguments, locations, attempts.
Now, of course, wouldn't be nice if 'umount' said something like "hey
dude! you're in the directory you're trying to umount."

produces no difference.
*# sync*
*# echo wait 2 hours*
*wait 2 hours*

Did you type sync and wait?
There are a bunch of files on the floppy when mounted; I delete them all;
but then, there is a large amount of 'used' space! unmounting +
remounting 'fixes' this problem.
