The default for mount is "nouser". "man mount" for more details (look at the options section).

Do you have a shell up in which you have cd'ed over to your /mnt/flash (or whatever you called it). Do you have a file manager that is working in that directory? Are you cd'ed into that directory while trying to umount it? I've done that more times than I care to admit: mount /mnt/flash cd /mnt/flash ls -l cp pic1.jpg /home/pictures/testpic.jpg umount /mnt/flash The above sequence will always give a busy error, because I'm still in the directory. So if I just do a "cd" between the cp and the umount, I could unmount it in this situation. > Las question : I am not an expert in modules stuff.

For example, mine looks like this (Mandrake 8.1): # /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time. # # This file should contain the names of kernel modules that are # to be loaded at boot time, one per line. Comments begin with # a `#', and everything on the line after them are ignored. scsi_hostadapter ide-floppy sd_mod usb-storage -- Darin W. Smith Gig `em Ags!

Dae-elec zMate Half success

Hi all, While strugling with usb-storage, I have found this driver that also works for my Dane-Elec CF USB reader. Thank you very much for this magnificient work! I was nearnly ready to send back my card reader. It now works (I use it with Mandrake 8.2 and kernel 2.4.18.8). But I have two problems: -my cards are mounted only writable by the root (even if my mount directory is writable by everybody); -I cannot unmount the device; I get a message telling that it is busy even if I do not anymore access to it. Even mount -f does not work. I cannot rmmod usb-storage either. Las question : I am not an expert in modules stuff. I have now a usb-storage.o.gz file in the standard /lib/modules/.... directory and a usb-storage.o file in the directory where I have compiled usbat2. Can I just repalce the .gz file by the new .o file? Thank you very much for your help and for this already very nice work!
