Hello there,
I currently run into problems when I try to unmount a device which is locked by something in TC I don't understand at this point.
When Tinycore boots it looks like it tries to mount all devices in finds, as I can see by dmesg:
tc@box:~$ dmesg |grep sda
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 976773168 512-byte logical blocks: (500 GB/465 GiB)
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
sda: sda1 sda2 < sda5 sda6 >
sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
Adding 11700220k swap on /dev/sda5. Priority:-2 extents:1 across:11700220k FS
Devices appear in fstab after boot, but are unmounted again
tc@box:~$ cat /etc/fstab | grep sda
/dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 ext3 noauto,users,exec,relatime 0 0 # Added by TC
/dev/sda5 none swap defaults 0 0 # Added by TC
/dev/sda6 /mnt/sda6 ext3 noauto,users,exec,relatime 0 0 # Added by TC
tc@box:~$ df
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 2.6G 611.8M 2.0G 23% /
tmpfs 1.4G 0 1.4G 0% /dev/shm

/dev/loop1 296.0K 296.0K 0 100% /tmp/tcloop/libevent
tc@box:~$
But my problem is that I want to use disk sda for restoring another device, but I cannot use it, even though its not mounted:
tc@box:~$ sudo umount /dev/sda1
umount: can't umount /dev/sda1: Invalid argument
tc@box:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda1
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /mnt/sda1 failed: Device or resource busy
There are no open files:
tc@box:~$ lsof |grep sda
tc@box:~$
Can someone please give me a hint how this automount option at boottime behaves and why I can't just u/mount the device after boot? This is weird.
Thanks, derschueddi
