umount hdb?



i seem to have screwed something up.

i made a mount point for (the home partition of) my second hard drive,
/mnt/mikan, added it to /etc/fstab, and mounted it.

all was well.

now i decide to move /mnt/mikan to /.  i do so.

i get many errors.

now /mikan has some of the files it should have, but mostly not.
/mnt/mikan has nothing.  i've since trashed the latter.

(yes, i should have umounted first!)

now i can't umount anything:

orange:~# umount /mnt/mikan
error writing /etc/mtab.tmp: No space left on device
orange:~# umount /mikan
error writing /etc/mtab.tmp: No space left on device
orange:~# umount /dev/hdb7
error writing /etc/mtab.tmp: No space left on device

orange:~# df -h

/dev/hda9             465M   17k  440M   1% /tmp
/dev/hdb7              93M   93M     0 100% /mnt/mikan

how do i get the drive to unmount?  i'm confused ...

thanks!
