I have seen this same problem. If you loose network connectivity while transferring data from a network drive and you try to cancel the transfer and unmount the drive you get this dialog.
Clicking either "cancel" or "unmount anyway" does nothing and just pops up the same dialog again. This is an infinite loop and since the dialog is modal, as Nicolas noted, you are pretty much SOL at this point. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959888 Title: Volume is busy.
