This usually happens because a process keeps a file or directory under the mount point open. One particularly frequent case is when the current working directory of some process is under the mount point. As the error message suggests, you can use lsof to identify the offending process. > Further - how would I go about doing the mount to say /media/moko > automatically on plugging it in? There are many automount solutions for linux, from kernel modules to fuse filesystems. You probably don't want to mount it on plugging in, but rather on access to the mount point. -- Alexey Feldgendler <[email protected]> [ICQ: 115226275] http://feldgendler.livejournal.com _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
