(2) the mounted MSDOS file systems cannot sometimes unmounted. I have two VFAT partitions on one IDE drive. One can be unmounted correctly with 'umount /dos', but the other cannot be unmounted with "Device busy" message after 'umount /dos-d.' When typing 'umount /dos-d' before 'umount /dos', the result is the same as the above. /dos-d cannot be unmounted with "Device busy." I call it "un-unmount problem." I have not seen the un-unmount problem on a floppy device.:-) Do -stable users see the same problems, especially on removable medias? Don't -current users see the same problems?
