Boy, learning Linux is fun. Today I used (copied from) a floppy for the second time! Took me all of ten minutes with CP/M, but with Linux. . . . mount tells me (inter alia): /dev/fd0 on /media/floppy type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,sync,user=peter) Having copied from it, I no longer want it. I'm not using it (as far as I know, and I've thought about this for some time). peter@linux:~> umount /dev/fd0 brings me the message umount: /media/floppy: device is busy Can I just ignore this and take the silly thing out before it fries? (I'd like to return it to its owner.) (Yes, I have attempted to look in the user guide, the unofficial FAQ, and one O'Reilly book about Linux to see how a diskette can be busy when it appears not to be in use -- no results.)
