Hi.

I have entware enabled and am unable to unmount the USB device even when no process is using it. What do I need to do to unmount it? I used to be able to do so with offset versions period to. 45.

Give more information, if it's possible.

I occasionally saw a ~1min+ lag while my 500gb USB HDD unmounted. So, perhaps just wait?


You can use "fuser -k /dev/(insert drive/partition here)" and it will kill all processes accessing that device. Sometimes you just have to resort to that.

fuser output is empty. I tried to run the unmount command many times without success.
