I'm not surprised. You're yanking out a *mounted* device. That's what the umount command is for. ReiserFS expected it to be there, can't find it, and pukes. A bit (no, a lot) ungraceful, but totally understandable. After all, some process might be trying to write to the device... -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B "I prefer the most unfair peace to the most righteous war."
