Title changed from: How to "uMount" a hard drive in Kubuntu 10.10
Yesterday, How to Mount a hard drive in Kubuntu 10.10 – Today, How to uMount a hard drive in Kubuntu 10.10
Don’t worry, it is just as simple.
If you didn’t read yesterday’s article, you will want to, before doing these steps:
In the end, it really comes down to simply knowing how to uMount a Hard Drive in Kubuntu.
- Hit Alt+F2 on you keyboard.
- In the “Run Command” dialog, type: “konsole” and hit the [enter] key.
- Then you will type the following code:
sudo umount /dev/sdb1
then press the [enter] key. This un-mounts the sdb1 device, made available as “SATA-Disk-2” in the “media” directory.
One additional note…
If /dev/sdb1 were a cd-rom or some sort of removable device:
- Hit Alt+F2 on you keyboard.
- In the “Run Command” dialog, type: “konsole” and hit the [enter] key.
- Then you will type the following code:
sudo eject /dev/sdb1
then press the [enter] key. This un-mounts the sdb1 device, made available as “SATA-Disk-2” in the “media” directory.
Again, I point out the fact, these steps are not difficult.
Some additional information you may find helpful, can be read by going to Ubuntu Documentation and reading the Mount documentation.
