Have you tried 'mount' before unplugging the device to check if it is still mounted?
Yes, it is no longer mounted, I checked that, because that was my first thought too. The script has a sleep-command to be sure about this. After that it sends email to report it has done it's job. Users can unplug the device after they got the mail.
It is a 32-bit system, by the way, and with 10.0 version that was installed before this, there never was a problem.
Try issuing a sync command before umount. that will make sure all data has been written and make it safer to disconnect the device.
The sleep is before umounting and mailing. I just updated the machine with you to latest kernel. So far I have been testing a few times to disconnect, no problem yet. Also ran the script, still working :-) For this moment I draw the conclusion, that the updated kernel solved it. Thanks all.
