When you plug in new devices like a camera or X-D card reader they get the next letter, sdb1, sdc1, etc and that is registered for that device for then on. Which is ok as it lets you create mount points with unique names like /mnt/mmc or /mnt/xd, etc and place them in /etc/fstab since they always get the same /dev/sdx1.
But, how do you free up one or all of those remembered /dev's? Like I plugged in a couple of cameras I will never use again (was tryting before I bought) and now the /dev/sdb1 and /dev/sdc1 are not available to allow another to use.
So, where would I go and what would I do to remove the lock the cameras had on them?
