So to test, I umount'd and then used this: # mount -t vfat /dev/hdb2 /mnt/storage/ And after that I was able to happily delete stuff. So I rebooted to see if it was a startup issue. But, nope, I can do anything on the drive again. Very strange. Could a process put a lock on the whole mount point, but only if it were a FAT32 parition? I'm not sure what else could have been causing it, unless I have a flaky hard drive -- it was a donated drive. Any tests I can do to determine if the drive has issues (hdparm or others)?
