strange behavior of mount
when mounting my SATA hard drive by usb it is often disconnecting without reason
( i.e. i didn't move my laptop and I didn't touch usb cables ).
The disconnections by itself are probably bug in kernel or problem
with my hardware,
and while quite irritating it is not causing too much problems, but
when mounting again
mount _doesn't_ FAIL even though df is still telling me that there are
mounted volumes in
given location:
darkestkhan@khanat /dev $ df

/dev/sdf4 235603192 202341520 21293652 91% /storage
It was just by chance that I even caught it. When I'm doing mount of (
now sdg4 ) in to storage
( sudo mount /dev/sdg4 /storage ) then mount is doing this, though it
should fail ( especially since
have programs running in /storage ). Volumes: sdb4, sdc4, sdd4, sde4,
sdf4 are exactly the same thing.
In order to completely umount /storage i have to do umont quite a few times...
Anyone else experienced something like this ? or is it just some
strange issue caused by my hardware ?
kernel version is 2.6.37 for AMD64 and mount version is 2.17.2.9
